Yeah, so Joel Embiid is back to being Joel Embiid again.
Folks, it looks like the rumors that Joel Embiid has gained weight and is out of shape have been exaggerated. The No. 3 overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft showed off his athleticism, and proved he’s healthy with an incredible pre-game between the legs dunk.
Embiid is not expected to play for the Philadelphia 76ers at all this season, but this is great news for the franchise’s hopes of fielding a competitive team any time soon. A between-the-legs dunk is highly-impressive for a seven-footer like Embiid, but there’s no way he can also hit three-pointers right? Check out Embiid’s silky-smooth shooting stroke in the vine below.
