Joel Embiid says he is barely using social media these days

Embiid also became a first-time father this year.

Joel Embiid said that he is barely using social networks nowadays.

Embiid is famous for his use of Twitter and Instagram early in his career.

Per ESPN, “I barely use social media these days,” he said.
Embiid didn’t take to social media to combat the narrative that he needed to be in better shape.
“I don’t post my workouts,” Embiid said. “I don’t need to show off to people, ‘Look at me, I’m working out. Look at this picture, this is me working out every single day.’”
Embiid also became a first-time father this year.
“I’ve never seen someone go from zero to 60 like Jo can,” Sixers general manager Elton Brand said. “Once he’s focused and locked in, he becomes that guy. And coming into the bubble, he was in amazing shape.”
