Jared McCain Tore His Meniscus and Joel Embiid Has a Broken Face for the Third Time

Sixers email:

“Jared McCain reported left knee soreness following last night’s game vs. Indiana.

An MRI today revealed a lateral meniscus tear in his left knee. The injury will require surgery and he is out indefinitely.”

Joel Embiid also exited the game after getting hit in the face. He’s been diagnosed with a sinus fracture and will undergo further evaluation this weekend. It’s the third time Embiid has suffered a broken facial bone during his Sixers tenure. The first happened in 2018, when Markelle Fultz accidentally shouldered him, resulting in Embiid returning with the mask. Then there was the Pascal Siakam elbow, in the 2022 playoffs, and now this incident in 2024. The Sixers are 7-16 and can’t catch a break this year. It may be a lost offseason, which would be incredibly disappointing considering how much buzz the organization created in the summer, with the free agency signings of Paul George, Guerschon Yabusele, Caleb Martin, and Andre Drummond, plus the new contract for Tyrese Maxey.
