Report: Sixers have Joel Embiid's medical records
Count Philadelphia as one of the few teams with Kansas standout Joel Embiid's elusive medical records.
#SixersTalk The #Sixers have Joel Embiid's medical records according to NBA source.

Embiid, wracked with injuries prior to the draft, is an unknown quantity for most teams. His agent Arn Tellem is reportedly controlling which teams are privy to his medicals, and which teams aren't.
There's no question that Embiid is a top prospect when healthy. However, with the caveat of health dangling over his future, the hulking center has understandably seen his stock drop of late.
The Sixers currently hold the third pick and tenth pick in the draft. If they're bullish on his records, perhaps they'll expend one of their picks on the unquestionably gifted prospect.
