Joel Embiid suffered another injury setback and will be out at least another week, per the Philadelphia 76ers in a press release. Embiid, who has missed the last six games, has swelling in the left knee and will be reevaluated in 7-to-10 days.

Joel Embiid's ongoing knee issues should alter the Sixers' strategy heading into the NBA trade deadline, as they now have far less incentive to make a win-now move.

The Philadelphia 76ers will look to get back in the win column on Tuesday when they play host to the Western Conference's No. 1 team, the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Sixers are sitting at 15-22 and need a win in the worst way possible.
