Just as the Ben Simmons conspiracy corner is heating up, should we start subscribing to Embiid theories? With no current  timetable for his return from a bone bruise on his left knee, Embiid will sit out tonight’s game and won’t be on tomorrow’s flight to Orlando.

I’m still not concerned – for now – and it hurts the Sixers none to hold Embiid out until the All-Star Break. But when that very special February 24th game comes around, if Embiid is still not playing, that’s when I officially get concerned. I long for the day when being a Sixers fan isn’t nearly this stressful.
