The Joel Embiid era is nigh. The No. 3 pick from the 2014 NBA Draft is just a couple of days away from finally suiting up in a sanctioned NBA game. Granted, it's just a preseason game, so there's nothing official happening, but the Philadelphia 76ers are going to finally get their talented big man on the court 27 months after drafting him.

Coach Brett Brown was on the radio in Philadelphia and confirmed the starting lineup for Tuesday night's exhibition game against the Boston Celtics in Amherst, Massachusetts.
