    If Embiid is having trouble playing 25 minutes a game I don't see how he is going to be healthy in the future. I think Simmons might turn out to be good, but I don't think he has Lebron potential. Maybe grant hill potential.

    Simmons needs to drop weight . Look at Corey Brewers health . He should have never bulked up in the first place .

    When Jordan was in his 2nd year he broke his foot, the org wanted him to sit out the year, but he was playing anyone at North Carolina so they activated him.

    I think orgs are overly cautious now days.

    Won't play in summer league next season because he is not expected to have fully recovered by then?

    Looking bad. I don't mind being cautious when the season is a bust anyway, but this is looking more and more like it's going south on 'em.

    Thats what it looks like. Thats past just being "cautious", could mean its an injury setback.

    I never read where after summer league was "always" a target date, not sure how that came about. It was always optimistic to get him back before end of season.
