Mods feel free to collapse it into the NBA playoffs thread if need be....
With the revelation about Embiid's foot injury, some are speculating that Wiggins and Parker are near locks at 1-2, though the Cavs may work out Exum.
Have also seen chatter that the Sixers (who would then be sort of screwed) could role the dice on Embiid. Wonder where that leaves Nerlens.

First the back injury and now the stress fracture. |

Hope he isn't Greg Oden. Seems like a gamble, but what do I know.

Could be nothing much to be concerned with and considering that Noel went 6th with a much nastier injury, I doubt Embiid falls all that much. Hopefully the worst news for the guy is that it was just a poorly-timed injury from which he'll fully recover. |

Not the best injury but his upside is way higher than Oden so there's no way he falls lower than 6, and it would be surprising if he gets that far.

Not sure how this will impact the draft but with both Lebron and Melo exercising their options, there will be some big moves this offseason.

Please, please just ship Melo out of NY. If the Knicks sign him to a five year max deal, I don't know how I'll be able to watch the games.

And I would only add to that: Jim Buss, if you sign Melo, on top of giving Kobe his idiotic contract and the other imbecilic moves you have pulled, I will shoot you. There won't be a safe place for you to hide. |

76ers take Embiid, guess thats the end of Henry's time there although with both Noel and Embiid coming of injuries it may be worth it to them to keep a 3rd C.
