From Philadelphia’s side of things, I wanted to kick it off with the development path of a younger Joel Embiid. Due to his checkered injury history, Embiid didn’t even play his first NBA game until age 22. Meanwhile, Ayton just turned 20 over the summer. From the get-go, the 76ers decided to play their offense entirely through Embiid as a more traditional back to the basket style like Ayton.
