Fansided urged the Sixers to acquire Washington Wizards center Jonas Valanciunas with Embiid out yet again. Not to mention, he wouldn’t be too hard to acquire.

Joel Embiid suffered another injury setback and will be out at least another week, per the Philadelphia 76ers in a press release. Embiid, who has missed the last six games, has swelling in the left knee and will be reevaluated in 7-to-10 days.

Joel Embiid's ongoing knee issues should alter the Sixers' strategy heading into the NBA trade deadline, as they now have far less incentive to make a win-now move.
