Former NBA All-Star DeMarcus Cousins has suggested that Joel Embiid may need to lose weight to prolong his career. While acknowledging that Embiid is not overweight, Cousins argues that playing at 300 pounds puts significant strain on his lower body, increasing the risk of injuries. Embiid, who has faced recurring knee issues, is nearing 30 years old, making it crucial to address his weight to maintain his health and performance.
