Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid will be sidelined for at least the upcoming weekend due to an injured lateral meniscus in his left knee. The news comes after Embiid's MRI revealed the extent of the injury suffered during Tuesday night's game against the Golden State Warriors.
Embiid was already slated to miss Thursday night's game against the Utah Jazz, and now he will also be absent for the team's matchup against the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday. The 76ers are currently working on finalizing a treatment plan for their star player.
