Joel Embiid 'pissed off' 76ers held him out of recent game, calls out GM Daryl Morey

PHILADELPHIA — One hour after the Philadelphia 76ers captured their 43rd win in one of their most complete performances of the season, star center Joel Embiid voiced his frustration with the organization and general manager Daryl Morey over not playing in a game earlier in the week.“I was pissed off,” Embiid said Friday in his first public comments since the team held him out of Wednesday’s game against the Washington Wizards with an illness. “I wanted to play basketball. I wasn’t allowed to play basketball. So, this is more of a question for Daryl Morey.”Advertisement
