Uh oh. Is Embiid the new Bynum?
Adrian Wojanarowowowowowsksisksiskski reporting for Yahoo!:
After weeks of rigorous workouts, Embiid had not felt pain in the foot, but a recent CT scan revealed an issue in the healing process, sources said. Philadelphia is consulting with doctors on how to best proceed, and it’s still premature to speculate on the possibility of another surgical procedure that could sideline Embiid, sources said.
Embiid had been expected to participate with Sixers’ summer league teams in July, but that could jeopardized now, sources said. For now, it is too soon to tell how long Embiid will be kept out.
Well that’s not good. At all. In any way, shape, or form.

UPDATE: Wait, Embiid’s doctor’s name is Dick Ferkel? That’s awesome.
