Joel Embiid's Return Falls Short in Game 4 Loss Um, so Joel Embiid came back from his appendectomy for Game 4 against Boston and... it didn't go well. I-I mean, he was there but the Celtics were just on fire tonight.

Payton Pritchard had like 32 points! That's a career-high in playoffs or something. The thing is, even though Embiid played, the Sixers still got blown out 128-96. Is it possible that playing hurt might have actually put them at a disadvantage?

The article mentions how Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgcomb were the ones who needed to step up in Embiid's absence. I'm wondering if this loss shows that maybe, sometimes, the best thing for a team is to let their star rest. I mean, it looks like playing hurt might have backfired here. What do you think?

Should Embiid have sat out or was his presence still important despite the outcome?
