A new season of sports

The Athletic Shams reported that Embiid's left knee meniscus valve is displaced and is currently considering surgery.

According to Joy experts, meniscus valve displacement is also considered a type of meniscus tear.

Embiid and his team are still debating with the 76ers whether to take a break to recover or just undergo surgery.

There's no doubt that Embiid will miss longer if he undergoes surgery, or even be reimbursed for the regular season. So far this season, Embiid has played in 34 games for the 76ers, averaging 35 per game3 points 113 rebounds and 57 assists. And the three hit percentages are: 3%。Jeff Stoffs, a sports medicine expert in the beautiful country, then posted an article analyzing Embiid's injury, he said: "Now we have a clear understanding of the specific situation of Embiid's meniscus tear, knee meniscus flap displacement is a very special and unfortunately complex type of laceration, and the most commonly used method is partial meniscectomy surgery." ”

As soon as they saw this, many fans panicked. Removing part of the meniscus, there are indeed many stars in NBA history who have had similar surgeries, such as Arenas, Grant Hill, 'Yellow Mamba' Roy, Rose, Wei Shao, Wade, and among so many stars, it seems that only Wade can barely maintain his condition after surgery. One can imagine how terrible the injury and surgery are for a professional player. So, if he undergoes surgery, will Embiid's career go downhill?

With this injury, many people pointed the finger at the Warriors.

Because in the game between the 76ers and the Warriors, Embiid had many violent physical collisions and then fell. first made a mistake in dribbling, and then fell to the ground with Dream Chasing to grab the ball. Although Green is a well-known villain in the league, this time Green did go for the ball. Moreover, this time, when he saw Embiid fall to the ground, he took the initiative to come forward to care about the greetings. After that, it was Embiid's complete injury process, holding the ball back to hit Green, and then Kuminga was cut off the ball, the two sides fought for the ball and fell to the ground again, and Kuminga sat on Embiid's knee with a butt. At that time, Embiid immediately held his left knee with his left hand, and his expression was painful.

But before this confrontation, Embiid had a more surprising round. When Embiid rushed from the outside to the inside, he was ready to make up for the jump, but suddenly his legs went weak and he fell to the ground without confrontation. So this round, did it lay the groundwork for the subsequent injuries? According to Shams, Embiid has been affected by knee soreness for most of the season, and since the beginning of January, his left knee has started to experience pain and swelling, and as a result, he missed three games in early January. So when the 76ers have a good record, Embiid's knee has been sore and swollen for a long time, why should he insist on playing this game against the Warriors?

It's simple, stress. Before the game against the Warriors, Embiid missed the game against the Nuggets. He had not been listed for injury for the whole day, but was suddenly absent for 15 minutes before the game. The 76ers' medical team made the decision after Embiid's training, and such a sudden decision was met with suspicion by the league. So after the game, the league launched an investigation into the 76ers and ended up being fined 7$50,000. Actually, there is nothing wrong with this matter, and there is no problem with the alliance investigation. But soon Sam Amick reported that 76ers insiders believe that the entire league is putting pressure on Embiid, and the reason why he is playing with an injury is because of the pressure.

The 76ers' record and Embiid's personal data are very good, so Embiid is regarded as an MVP favorite. But the NBA rules require players to play 65 games in the regular season and at least 20 minutes per game to participate in the awards, but Embiid has missed 13 games before. However, reporter Chris Haynes said that Embiid has never actually pursued to play in 65 games, and his goals this season are two things, one is to be the best player and the other is to stay healthy in the playoffs. At the moment, Embiid has not yet made a decision on whether to undergo surgery.

Either way, hopefully he recovers as soon as possible and returns to the circle in a healthy state.
