76ers’ Joel Embiid returns to Raptors game after injury scare

Philadelphia 76ers big man Joel Embiid suited up against the Toronto Raptors after being listed as questionable to play on the injury report. However, the Sixers got a scare as Embiid headed to the locker room in the first quarter after going down with what appeared to be a knee injury.

Embiid collided with Raptors guard Ja'Kobi Walter while setting a screen and fell in a heap on the court, pointing to his right knee. The Sixers' medical staff check up on him during a stoppage in play and helped him to the locker room.

Fortunately for him and the Sixers, the injury does not appear to be too serious as Embiid has returned to the game.
