Here's a bummer of a story to bring you down this evening. Arthur Embiid, the younger brother of Joel Embiid, died today in Africa. Not many details are known (which is why we can only narrow his death down to an entire continent) but Joel's agent said that the 76ers first round pick is "devastated." Also unclear is the cause of death, or even Arthur's age (all that we know is that he's younger than 20).

If we find out anything more we'll obviously update.
