Joel Embiid is officially an All-Star.
Maybe Rihanna is now interested?
Even if so, sorry, RiRi … "The Process" has moved on.
In a postgame interview Thursday night with NBA on TNT's Kristen Ledlow, Embiid was asked about his old crush (a topic which resurfaced that evening).
Any words for the national audience, Mr. All-Star?
"She denied me back then, so why go with her again?" Embiid said with a smile after the Sixers' 89-80 win over the Celtics (see game story). "Might have to pass that and move on to the next one."
Ben Simmons wasn't so sure.

"Shoot for the stars," Simmons said to ESPN. "Shoot his shot."
So, anything else, JoJo?
"Trust the process," Embiid said.
Now that's an All-Star.
