Despite Joel Embiid still recovering from surgery to address a torn meniscus, Team USA is counting on the big man for this summer’s Olympics in Paris. Embiid is still committed to playing in the games as well.
Embiid chose to represent the United States on the national team level this past fall. Embiid picked the United States over France and his native Cameroon, both of whom he was also eligible to play for.
The Philadelphia 76ers star had surgery in in early February to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee. The Sixers are hopeful that Embiid will return in late March. If he can return and stay healthy through the playoffs, that should open the door for Embiid to join Team USA this summer.
