Joel Embiid has long been a fan of WWE’s Triple H. And he’s even given homage at times to the D-Generation X celebration. Or what Sixers fans now refer to fondly as #ThrusttheProcess.
In a high impact game vs. the Brooklyn Nets the other night, the first game that both Embiid and former Sixer first overall pick Ben Simmons shared the floor, Embiid busted out the semi-lewd cellie.
Doris Burke only unwittingly added to the salaciousness of the moment, when describing Embiid’s rare combination of power and agility, just as ESPN decided to replay Joel’s.
