Haynes: Embiid still has strict time limits in the new season. I would be surprised if he plays back-to-back games

In the NBA preseason, the 76ers defeated the Timberwolves 126-110. In this game, Embiid made his comeback. He played 18 minutes, made 5 of 10 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 14 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 steals.

Famous reporter Chris Haynes revealed on the show the 76ers' plan for Embiid in the new season.

He said: "As far as I know, I would be surprised if he can play back-to-back games in the new season. The team has clearly communicated to me that his playing time will be strictly controlled. In the new season, the team will be very careful about his use."

Embiid only played 19 times last season. In the new season, the 76ers have 16 back-to-back games. If Embiid stays healthy in all non-back-to-back games, his maximum number of appearances will be 66.
