我要评论Joel Embiid is many things. He's a phenomenal basketball player, a quality quote, a physical marvel and, as most NBA fans know by know, hilarious on social media. 。

Embiid was in contention for a reserve spot on the NBA All-Star team, which is selected by the league's coaches. Reserves were announced Thursday. But Embiid -- despite having a stellar season for the Philadelphia 76ers -- wasn't on the list.

This isn't Embiid's first time tweaking Trump, though. 。
As the Republican candidate proceeded to his surprise presidential election win in November, Embiid posted a tweet that America was "tanking" in the way a sports team would purposely give up on its season. 。

Way back in 2014, Embiid related a mini-tragedy to fans via Twitter. He said he was trying to strike up an amorous relationship with "this famous girl," who rebuffed him. The "famous girl," Embiid said, told him to "come back when you're All-Star."。
Thus, making the All-Star team this season in his first real chance as a candidate became doubly important for Embiid. Speculation has said the celebrity "CRUSH" is Rihanna. 。
