Sixers center Joel Embiid is absolutely dominating Twitter these days.

One day after gaining All-Star votes by entering to Triple H’s entrance music and roasting Heat center Hassan Whiteside on Twitter, Embiid decided to honor his teammate, T.J. McConnell, in his avatar. He photoshopped a photo of McConnell’s running fist-pump after his game-winner against the Knicks next to Michael Jordan.

Maybe Embiid is so bored getting votes for himself that he’ll turn and help his teammates get there.
