JJ Redick Gets Emotional Talking To Joel Embiid About The Possibility Of Winning MVP

This season, Philadelphia 76ers All-Star center Joel Embiid has made another step and is a legitimate MVP candidate this season.

Embiid is a 7-foot-two, 280-pound big, who has no trouble racing down the court and finish at the rim with ease. He can knock down long range jumpers, shoot fadeaway jumpers like a guard, and dismantle defenders with smooth footwork and soft touch.

His great play and valid MVP candidacy has now caused an emotional reaction by Embiid’s former teammate J.J. Redick:

“To see what you have become as a player and person, man, and I got to basically be here like at the beginning, like it’s meaningful to me and I just want to let you know I’m proud of you bro.”
