tbf a guy like AD gets a tonne more flack for availability yet he has 4x the number of 67+ game seasons played or something?
embiid scraped by the min game requirement to even be eligible for his mvp last year
Embiid was a whole lot more injury prone earlier in his career. But over the past three years (all years he finished top 2 in MVP voting), he has been relatively durable in comparison. Definitely less injury prone than AD over the last three years.
Embiid has been given a lot of rest days in recent years, not even necessarily injuries. But I think Nick Nurse is trying to change that as it's proven to have minimal impact on preventing injuries.
