Sixers star Joel Embiid opened the door to the possibility of playing elsewhere, saying he wants to win a title 'whether it's in Philly or anywhere else.'
Embiid was named NBA Most Valuable Player for the 2022-23 season and enters his eighth season with the franchise contemplating his next move.
"I just want to win a championship. Whatever it takes," Embiid said in an interview with Maverick Carter that took place Thursday at the Uninterrupted Sports Film Festival. "I don't know where that's gonna be, whether it's in Philly or anywhere else, I just want to have a chance to accomplish that. I want to see what it feels like to win that first one, and then you can think about the next one. It's not easy, but it takes more than one or two, three guys.
Although the interview took place Thursday, video of the conversation gained steam Monday on social media."I understand the business, it's fun; at the end of the day, I think of it like this: I'm extremely blessed," Embiid said. Embiid was in Los Angeles to launch his own film studio, but he appears to have no control over who'll be his co-star next season.
