Life couldn't be better for Sixers center Joel Embiid at the moment.

Embiid is entering his fourth season in Philadelphia and he just signed a five-year contract extension worth $148 million.

He showed his love for fans Tuesday.

“I don’t think without them I’d get this extension," Embiid said. "They did a lot for me. Even though I don’t think they know that, I think they pushed me a lot.”

He also showed some range in practice, drilling a half-court shot and a fadeaway jumper. After draining the half-court shot, you can see Embiid dancing and celebrating in front of Kris Humphries and Jahlil Okafor. 

For the crazy shot and the ensuing fun, watch the video above.
