Absent since the beginning of February, after tearing his left meniscus, Joel Embiid is in the infirmary for a while longer. It is not even certain that the 2023 MVP will return this season, despite his optimism. The Sixers therefore adapt, as best they can, with Paul Reed and Mo Bamba.
But obviously, this is not enough since The Athletic tells us that the Philadelphia franchise will test Kai Jones in the coming days.
Kai Jones ready to return?
The 23-year-old pivot has been free since the first days of October 2023 since he was cut by the Hornets. Multiplying strange statements and videos on social networks, before asking to be transferred, the leaders then decided to part ways.
Unable to play again, physically and mentally, immediately, since the Clippers had him in their sights without being able to sign him, does Kai Jones have his ideas back in place? The Sixers will quickly know this even if, after two seasons in Charlotte, the player had not particularly stood out, compiling only 2.7 points and 2 rebounds on average.
