For Embiid? No, not at all. Embiid's body is an absolute wreck. I'm not convinced the guy will ever play more than 70 games in a year, he can't be relied on to carry you through the regular season if you want him to be intact at all for the playoffs, and even if you get to the playoffs resting him in the regular season, there's a reasonable chance that he'll be in bad shape come playoff time anyway. His knees are made of a PVA glue and sawdust.
