Even the shoe laces are sparkling. That’s some next-level swag right there.
Even better, Embiid isn’t completely ruling out a return to action in Game 1 (he’s not likely to play) of the first round of playoff action, where he’ll be sporting a different type of swag.

Regardless, it won’t be long until Embiid can join his teammates, who have been torching opponents even while he’s been out of commission following a nasty collision that broke his orbital bone.
