Rookie center Joel Embiid has yet to step on the court in a meaningful NBA game. That’s the bad news for the Philadelphia 76ers. The good news is that he’s used his rehab time to get huge.
Here he is straight-up beasting a defender in a one-on-one drill.
To be fair, a pro should probably convert more than 50 percent of chances from that range. But let’s not let the missed dunk ruin the first bit of hope the Sixers have had in months. Dude looks large and also in charge. Add that to his newfound ability to sink three-pointers, and Embiid is poised to be a major factor once he heals.
