Philadelphia 76ers coach Brett Brown said Friday that he doesn’t have any sense of how long Joel Embiid will be out with an orbital fracture around his left eye.

Embiid will have surgery after the swelling goes down, Brown said. The All-Star center also has a concussion; he suffered both injuries during an on-court collision with teammate Markelle Fultz on Wednesday night. “After the swelling goes down and whenever the operation happens,” Brown said, “we’ll all have a better feeling of accurate news. Right now we don’t have any information.”
