Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers are consulting with doctors and considering alternatives for the center’s injured knee. Embiid suffered swelling in his left knee after Saturday’s loss to the Brooklyn Nets. Treatment options, including injections, have not resulted in any improvement for Embiid.
