76ers again hold out reigning MVP Joel Embiid against Hawks with knee injury

Associated Press  

ATLANTA — Philadelphia center Joel Embiid, the reigning NBA MVP, missed the 76ers’ game at the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night with swelling in his left knee. Embiid was held out four straight games with a right ankle injury before returning to play two games, including a 128-92 loss to the New York Knicks on Friday night in which he sustained the knee injury. Embiid did not travel with the team to Atlanta but worked on the court in Philadelphia and is “progressing good,” according to 76ers coach Nick Nurse. We’re still kind of going day to day.” Nurse said he believes the swelling is under control and Embiid is “going through ramp-up” activities as he prepares to play.
