Bell’s palsy affects the muscles on one side of the face, resulting in weakening or paralysis of the muscles.
In the third game of Philadelphia’s play-off series against the New York Knicks, Embiid scored a play-off career-high 50 points.
“Pretty annoying with the left side of my face, my mouth and my eye,” stated the man.
“Though it’s been difficult, I won’t give up. You must persevere through all obstacles.”
The NBA’s 2023 Most Valuable Player, Joel Embiid, stated he has been coping with the illness ever since Philadelphia defeated the Miami Heat on April 17.
