(AP) — Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee on Wednesday, and the team said he will be re-evaluated in about six weeks.

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid had successful arthroscopic surgery on his left knee earlier this week, the team announced on Friday. He'll be re-evaluated in six weeks.

Last season, Embiid was limited to 39 games due to a torn meniscus in his left knee. In February 2024, the Sixers' big man underwent surgery and returned in early April for the team's playoff run. Embiid then won a gold medal with Team USA in the Paris Games.
