Philadelphia 76ers coach Nick Nurse confirmed that Joel Embiid despite a brief injury scare has no intention of sitting out following their 111-104 loss to the New York Knicks in Game 1. Embiid left the game briefly in the first half after landing awkwardly on his left leg following a spectacular dunk.
However, he returned to the bench before the start of the second half and rejoined his teammates on the court. Despite the scare, Embiid finished the game with 29 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists. While he declined to speak to the media after the game, his teammates praised his resilience and commitment to the team.
This incident marks the second time in just over a week that Embiid has had an injury scare but his determination to continue playing demonstrates his unwavering dedication to his team.
