"Joel Embiid has a small meniscus tear in his right knee and will be day-to-day, team says. He's out for Game 5 tonight."
"Managing potential swelling and pain on the knee will play a significant part in how soon Embiid returns to the floor. Team says "the injury will be managed with a physical therapy and treatment program."
Shitty shitty shitty
Only bright side is we don't need him against Washington. Should be able to close the series without him even if it extends the series. Then in the second round against a team like Atlanta should be able beat them without Embiid as well, although it may be tough.
This is if he only needs say 1-2 weeks to heal up. If it's truly a small tear it's manageable and he can play again, but who knows what is really happening with this god damn training staff.
