Head coach Nick Nurse said there are stages to the healing process and that everybody heals differently. He said the team is looking to get Embiid healthy and get him back into the lineup when he is ready to go.
Joel Embiid has been re-evaluated by doctors and they are "happy with the progress" the 76ers center is making following meniscus surgery on his left knee, Philadelphia head coach Nick Nurse said Saturday."I think there’s always stages of how these things progress," Nurse said before the Sixers faced the Charlotte Hornets. "Everyone wants to know ’Well how long is it going to be?" And they give a wide range because of that, because everyone heals differently.
"I’m still hoping so and pretty confident, yes," the coach said.Embiid's status has been a source of speculation with an expected team medical update never coming on the re-evaluation after the Feb. 6 surgery. Embiid said on Feb. 29 that he believed that he would be back for the playoffs, but the team's silence on the matter had created some questions about where the rehab process was.
