Okay, so, today I wanted to figure out if Joel Embiid was playing or not. You know, that big guy from the 76ers? Yeah, him. It all started with me casually browsing through my phone.

I opened up my go-to sports news app, and bam, there it was – a bunch of articles about Embiid. Some were saying he got kicked out of a game, others mentioned he was injured. It was all a bit of a mess, to be honest.
So, I decided to do a little digging. I started by checking out the recent game reports. Turns out, he got into some hot water in a game against the Spurs. He picked up two technical fouls in quick succession! Apparently, he was arguing a call and got himself ejected. Can you believe that?
Then I stumbled upon something about an injury. He apparently took a hit to the face from Bennedict Mathurin in a game against the Pacers. Ouch! That must have hurt. I also read somewhere that he hurt his face back in 2018, too, when he crashed into his teammate Markelle Fultz. Poor guy seems to have some bad luck with face injuries.
But that wasn’t all. I found reports saying he wouldn’t be playing in the next game against the Hornets. And get this, I saw that he was ruled out of a game against the Nuggets too! The 2023 MVP has been missing quite a few games recently. I noticed that he’s only played in four games this season. Seems like they’re really missing him on the court.
While I was at it, I also found out a little bit about his personal life. Did you know he’s dating a model named Anne De Paula? She’s a Brazilian fashion model and was even Miss Grand International Brazil in 2014. They seem like a pretty good-looking couple.

My conclusions
- Embiid got ejected from a game against the Spurs for arguing with the refs.
- He got injured in a game against the Pacers after getting hit in the face.
- He has been ruled out of some games.
- He’s only played four games this season.
So, there you have it. That’s the whole story of my little investigation into Embiid’s status. It was a bit of a wild ride, with ejections, injuries, and even a bit of gossip thrown in. I hope this clears things up for anyone else wondering if he’s playing or not! He is currently not playing any games.
