Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid sat out Saturday’s contest in Denver against the Nuggets due to a knee issue and he heard it from the fans, who were hoping to see him take on Nikola Jokic.
Nuggets fans could be heard loudly chanting, “Where’s Embiid at?” during the first quarter. Saturday’s contest marks the fourth consecutive game Embiid has sat out in Denver, having missed previous meetings with injuries to his meniscus and calf, as well as COVID.
