Be One with The Troll - Joel Embiid's Top Trolls | The Phifth Quarter

Joel Embiid is arguably the most entertaining player in the NBA, if not all professional sports. While he is a phenomenal player on the basketball court, Embiid loves to use his comedic side off the court, through trolling other players on various social medias.
