Philadelphia 76ers head coach Nick Nurse spoke on the current status of Joel Embiid as the former NBA MVP rehabs from knee surgery.

Many NBA experts feel enough is enough in regard to Joel Embiid’s injury woes. Ahead of the 2025-26 campaign, Nick Nurse has been urged to build his Philadelphia 76ers roster around other players and not the perennially injured big man.

While the Sixers coach said all signs are positive for Embiid so far, he reiterated that the team is more focused on making sure the star center is fully healthy before returning to the court.
