Why Didnt Joel Embid Play Last Night. Embiid has only been playing. Joel embiid, when he's not tired, is easily the best center in the league imo and at least a top 10 player, however, he sorta gets pretty tired in not too long and he starts (when he's tired) to make some poor shot/pass decisions and turns the ball over.
He got up, reached back to grab his lower back, and grimaced in pain before quickly resuming play. It might not have been joel embiid’s moment on tuesday night. Embiid will sit out the sixers' monday night game against memphis at wells fargo center.
