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.

“While the foot sprain has healed, Embiid experienced an increase in swelling in his left knee following the workout,” the Sixers said in a statement. “After consulting with team medical staff and external doctors, Embiid will receive treatment in the coming days to address the swelling.”
