Joel Embiid

Joel Embiid is reportedly set to return to the court for the 76ers Eastern Conference Semifinal matchup with the Boston Celtics Wednesday. 

Philadelphia 76ers center and league scoring champion Joel Embiid earned his first NBA MVP trophy Tuesday night, topping two-time winner Nikola Jokic of the Denver Nuggets.

As expected, Philadelphia 76ers All-Star center Joel Embiid will not play in the first game of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Boston Celtics, ESPN reports.

Joel Embiid scored 41 points and the Philadelphia 76ers recovered after blowing a 14-point, first-half lead to beat the Los Angeles Clippers 120-110 for their third straight win.

A person familiar with the decision says Denver’s Nikola Jokic has won his second consecutive Most Valuable Player award, after a season in which he finished with numbers never before seen in league history.

The Philadelphia 76ers were fined $50,000 by the NBA on Saturday for violating league injury reporting rules in failing to disclose Joel Embiid’s participation status in an accurate and timely manner.

In Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra’s mind, the injury situation with Joel Embiid doesn’t doom the Philadelphia 76ers. He figures it’ll only steel their resolve.

Nikola Jokic is a finalist to win a second straight NBA MVP award, along with two-time winner Giannis Antetokounmpo and Joel Embiid. The NBA unveiled the top-three finishers in voting for its individual awards Sunday, with the expected names in the running for the marquee award.

Joel Embiid won the NBA scoring title to become the first Philadelphia player to top the league since Allen Iverson 17 years ago.

Nikola Jokic had 22 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Denver Nuggets to a 114-110 win over the Philadelphia 76ers.

Joel Embiid and the 76ers barely have a leg to stand on. Embiid can’t jump. He can’t get any lift in his shots -- notable in a blown layup that should have won Game 4 -- and couldn’t make any buckets in the second half.

Philadelphia 76ers star center Joel Embiid has a small meniscus tear in his right knee and will miss Game 5 Wednesday night against the Washington Wizards, the team announced Wednesday afternoon. 

Philadelphia center Joel Embiid headed to the locker room late in the first quarter of Game 4 of the 76ers' Eastern Conference playoff series against the Washington Wizards after taking a hard fall and later was ruled out for the rest of the night because of a sore right knee.

Giannis Antetokounmpo moved into second place on Milwaukee's career scoring list and helped the Bucks deliver the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers their fourth straight loss.

Joel Embiid announced Saturday that he will donate his winnings from Sunday’s NBA All-Star Game to Philadelphia homeless shelters.

Joel Embiid was simply unstoppable. Embiid scored a career-high 50 points to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 112-105 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Friday night.

Joel Embiid had 27 points and 10 rebounds while remaining unbeaten at Madison Square Garden, and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the New York Knicks 109-89 on Saturday night.

Joel Embiid teamed up with the 76ers and Giant as part of the NBA Cares Season of Giving Initiative.
