WHY IS JOEL EMBIID WEARING A MASK?

Those who watched the semifinals of Game 3 of the Miami Heat and the Philadelphia 76ers Eastern Conference immediately noticed that Joel Embid was wearing the mask

In-game six vs the Raptors, Embiid suffered an injury when being tackled by Pascal Siakim

Siakim hit Embiid in the face with his elbow while protecting the basket, resulting in an awkward eye and facial injury

Embiid was only allowed to play for a week after suffering a concussion and an orbital fracture in his 6th win over Toronto. But Embid had protection and wore a black mask

Embiid was in the starting line-up for the 76ers, who won the first-quarter 21-17, with centre Embiid scoring seven of those points

Philadelphia 76ers fans probably remember that Embiid also wore a black mask in 2018. He may prefer to play healthy and without a mask...

But while he needs protection, he seems to prefer wearing a black mask
