After being named the 2022-23 MVP, Joel Embiid made his return to the 76ers starting lineup after missing time with an LCL sprain. However, things didn't go as well as he would have hoped, as Philadelphia was blown out 121-87 by the Boston Celtics in Game 2 Wednesday night. Outside of a monstrous 5 blocks, Embiid was relatively quiet and still clearly hampered by his injury.

Was it a mistake to bring Joel Embiid back in Game 2? Did the 76ers make a mistake by bringing him in too early after taking Game 1?

Join The Garden Report's Bobby Manning and Josue Pavon as they discuss Joel Embiid in his return to play.
