Joel Embiid's game with the Knicks lasted two quarters. The big man left the game in the 1st half after colliding with his teammate Markelle Fultz.

Per ESPN, While the 76ers initially said the All-Star center went through concussion protocol but did not have a concussion, they said after the game that he was taken to a hospital for additional testing.

Embiid posted an Instagram story that showed him in a hospital room and captioned it "Not good."
