Joel Embiid will reportedly need up to six months to recover from surgery to his fractured foot.
The NBA Draft prospect had two screws inserted into his foot during an operation yesterday morning, preventing him from attending next week's Draft.
According to Yahoo!, the procedure will prevent the seven-foot center from playing for four to six months, potentially ruling him out of the start of the 2014-15 regular season.
Embiid had been linked to the Cleveland Cavaliers, who have the first pick, but is expected to drop down the order as a result of the surgery.
