Joel Embiid listed as out for Sixers-Hornets on Monday, will be ineligible for end-of-season NBA awards
Embiid missed the second half of the Sixers' loss to the Indiana Pacers on Friday night after being hit in the face, and was later diagnosed with the sinus fracture. The game will be the 18th this season that Embiid misses, meaning he will officially fall short of the NBA's 65-game minimum to qualify for end-of-season awards.
