Joel Embiid through-the-legs dunk pre-game:

I can't be the only one thinking that Embiid dunk means he's progressing very well in rehab. If he still had some issues, no way the training staff lets him risk anything trying that.

I know that it's unlikely that they get 4 first round picks this year, given current protections, but if they have a solid draft with w/e picks they get... team could be very dirty in the coming years. Over $30M in cap space this summer to make moves (sign guys, take back bad contracts to move up in draft, or collect picks for taking on garbage, etc.). Hinkie shall troll us all.

Edit:
Should note that these dunks aren't super special or can't be replicated by any number of guys, but Nerlens & Joel seem at least somewhat confident in their bodies post-injury, which is encouraging.

Nice....Embiid's been lighting it up from 3 point range too during pre-game warmups. He's a natural shooter, and some used to say he is the 76er best shooter. Well, probably not today with Jrich and Cov and Canaan playing, but it goes to show you how good of a shooter he is.

Joel gotta stop messing around like that. Last thing we need is for him to tweak something doing circus dunks

Embiid for a 3 and D guy on the midlevel exemption and 2 second rounders.

My expectations for Noel and Embiid:

Noel: Defensive anchor
Embiid: Dominant big man

The thought of a healthy joel and noel in 3 years time is downright terrifying for the rest of the league.
