Joel Embiid is one of the biggest stars in the NBA today. Embiid has had a massive rise in the league, going from a big man struggling with injuries to now being the reigning league MVP as one of the best players in the NBA. But Embiid still knows how to have fun, as he showed fans on his Instagram story.

Posting to his Instagram story, Joel Embiid shared a video of himself at a party doing Brazil and Tottenham superstar Richarlison’s signature celebration dance. Embiid even tagged Richarlison in the video, showing that he was paying tribute to the Brazilian sensation.

Embiid wasn’t the only NBA player to interact with a global soccer superstar last night, as LeBron James was in attendance to watch Lionel Messi make his MLS debut with Inter Miami. James gave Messi a hug before the game, and even shouted out his incredible goal after the game.

Joel Embiid Is A Big Fan Of Soccer

Joel Embiid has not hidden his love for soccer. Embiid is admittedly a very big fan of the sport and has noted that Real Madrid is his favorite team in the sport. On top of that, a recent video showed Embiid playing soccer back home in Cameroon, where he even attempted an acrobatic bicycle kick unsuccessfully.

While Embiid loves soccer, he also loves basketball and is also great at it. Last season, Embiid averaged 33.1 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 4.2 assists as he helped the 76ers secure the third seed in the Eastern Conference, and won his first-ever NBA MVP award.

However, the playoffs ended in heartbreak once again, thus putting Embiid’s future with the 76ers in doubt. It was recently reported that Embiid is open to leaving the 76ers if things don’t work out between the two sides. Embiid’s future remains to be determined.
