Joel Embiid is already an NBA social media legend, and now the Philadelphia 76ers rookie is trying to use that status to propel himself to the NBA All-Star Game.
Oh, and apparently if he gets there he can go on a date with a famous mystery woman.
That’s according to Embiid’s Twitter account and an interview he gave with CSN Philly after Philadelphia’s 124-122 win over the Denver Nuggets on Friday.

Embiid wouldn’t say who this mystery person was, but if she really won’t hang out with him until he’s an All-Star I feel like some good advice would be to maybe pass on the offer.
Get someone who wants to be with you for who you are, Joel: a 3-point shooting, rebounding, blocking, social media-dominating NBA big man who, thanks to his Internet acumen, might just make it to the All-Star game thanks to his funny tweets.
