The evolution of Embiid from his first game or two to how he was playing in January is the fastest I've ever seen a player improve. Embiid was by far the best player on the court every time he was out there before his injury. I recall a team just went out with what seemed like intent to injure Embiid and shoved him in the back and nearly tackled him all game. Fkers robbed us of more Embiid that year.
