Joel Embiid finally got revenge on the Raptors for the Kawhi Leonard shot back in 2019 and, man, he’s feeling fantastic about it.
How do I know? Because when Embiid feels good, he talks trash. Lots of it.
That’s exactly how he followed up that incredible game-winning shot he hit to seal the 76ers comeback win and give them an insurmountable 3-0 lead in the series against Toronto. And the victim, in this case, was Drake.
Embiid was walking off the court and heading into the locker room when, all of a sudden, he spotted Toronto’s pride and joy and decided to make him a little less proud.

Embiid put things pretty bluntly for Drake. “That’s what you call a superstar. Get your [expletive] up. I’m coming for the sweep, too.” Well, alright then, buddy. I guess he’s coming for the sweep.
It’s over for the Raptors, man. Nothing they can do with this guy. 76ers fans are thrilled.
