I'm honestly expecting him now to fall to the Lakers and never have health issues again.

Big man with back and foot questions? Cleveland would be crazy to take the risk on him with the 2 guys behind him being very skilled players. I don't think that either Wiggins or Parker will become the next Michael Jordan, but taking Embid at the top has a Sam Bowie type of feel to it. He may contribute, but the other guys appear to have the potential to have much better (and longer) careers

@ChrisMannixSI 18m Several medical experts have described Embiid's type of injury to me as serious. Say navicular bone is the slowest healing in the body

You will hear this a lot: Yao Ming, Bill Walton and Zydrunas Ilgauskas all had navicular fractures in their feet.

With a bad back and foot already he fricked.

He broke his own foot so he wouldn't end up in Cleveland.

Now he gets to run through Milwaukee's owner's daughter all day. Yay

Bump.

ESPN source says foot injury will sideline him for 4-6 months.

Hope injuries don't derail this kid's career. I'd like to see him become a freak.

Nah. Milwaukee is taking Parker. He's from just down the road in Chicago, and is a bit of a regional legend in HS basketball-- if you are a marginal franchise like the Bucks, that will have problems retaining premium players, you don't pass up on a guy with deep roots less than 100 miles from where you play.
