Joel Embiid missed the Philadelphia 76ers' 113-98 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Friday to manage swelling in his left knee. That will also keep the embattled center out of Sunday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers, the team announced.
Embiid has only played in four games for the Sixers amid their 3-12 start this season. That was due largely to managing the recovery of his left knee, which kept him on the sideline during the preseason and Philadelphia's first five games of the season.
