Daryl Morey says Joel Embiid is ‘the most unstoppable thing’ he has ever seen

Philadelphia 76ers Team President Daryl Morey spoke to Sports Illustrated about Joel Embiid.

“I get in trouble when I say stuff like this,” Morey says, “but he’s the most unstoppable thing I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen a lot. You know who I’ve seen,” he says, alluding to Harden. “But I’ve never seen anything like it. Like last night against Rudy Gobert, he faced him up at eight feet, and I mean it ended in a dunk. And (Gobert) is an amazing defender. And he had no answer.”

Embiid is averaging a career-high 30.2 points per game, plus 11.6 rebounds, 3.3 assist and 1.4 blocks, shooting 52% from the field, 41% from long range and 85% from the foul line.
