June 19, 201412 yr Author One source told ESPN.com that Embiid "may have broken" his foot, but Tellem wouldn't speculate on the seriousness of the injury until he had heard back from doctors. Does he drop? If so how much?
June 19, 201412 yr Yes he drops. But not out of the top 5. Somebody will make a mistake. I wouldn't draft him top 10. #injuryprone #damagedgoods
June 19, 201412 yr He'll still go top 5. It's remarkable how opinions differ on him and Randle. Randle breaks his foot his senior year of HS, is a beast all last season, and they have injury concerns. Embiid has foot and back issues, misses time last season, and no one even thinks of dropping him down their draft boards.

June 19, 201412 yr I think I'm staying away from him. Not looking to have a big man with foot and back issues.
June 19, 201412 yr The back- now the foot. I worry if I am the Cavs- I would stay away at this point.
June 19, 201412 yr I would pass on him as well. But someone will take him early because there aren't many good big men in the league. No chance he falls past #7.
June 19, 201412 yr No way I take him 1 or 2. I would think about it at 3. He will be gone by 5 for sure. Noel went 6 and he was sitting out a whole year.

June 19, 201412 yr Good news for the Cavs. Horrible for Embiid. Now Cavs...go and take Wiggins like you should have all along.
June 19, 201412 yr Good news for the Cavs. Horrible for Embiid. Now Cavs...go and take Wiggins like you should have all along. Yeah this should make their decision quite easy, but then again it is the Cavs. Could be in store for another Bill Simmons WOAH!
June 20, 201412 yr Surprised he didn't jump to the top of the Cavs draft board after this news. It would fit with some decisions they've made.
June 20, 201412 yr On the news last night they said he was having surgery today and would not attend the draft next week.
