Joel Embiid needs our help.
We know Rihanna is going to be at the All-Star Game in New Orleans this is why we have to make sure Embiid is there as well.
Embiid has been trying to drum up All-Star votes from fans saying he needs the All-Star tag to have a shot with a famous mystery “crush” he’s been chasing for years.
He’s tweeted about the mystery girl and even referenced her during a post-game interview last week … but never mentioned her by name.
Well now, our Embiid sources are telling us the girl in question is definitely RiRi … who he’s had a crush on FOREVER.
In fact, when Embiid was first drafted into the league, he shot his shot with the singer on Twitter — but he claims she shot him down … insisting she told him to “come back when you’re a All Star.”
Fast forward to right now and guess what … Embiid is one of the best young players in the league — averaging 19 points and 8 rebounds a game … meaning he’s definitely in All-Star territory.
You can help Embiid by hashtagging #NBAVOTE and his name on your twitter account.
