Joel Embiid Makes Alarming Change To Social Media Profile
The Philadelphia 76ers have been in the news a lot lately.
James Harden is reportedly upset with the organization and has requested a trade as a result.
He has doubled down on his statements, calling the team’s president a liar, and proclaiming he will never play for him again.
This might be the cause for additional strife within the team, as Joel Embiid has recently removed “Philadelphia” as a location on his profile.
Sean Barnard of Philly Sports Network commented: “Normally I think this isn’t worth paying attention to at all but Joel Embiid is too online and calculated that I think it is worth mentioning.”
“Embiid removed “Processing…” and the location “Philadelphia, PA” from his Twitter bio.”

NBA Central pointed this out as a potential sign of trouble in paradise.

Embiid won the league MVP award during the 2022-2023 NBA Season.
He had a career year, something he was looking to continue in the upcoming season.
Could his latest profile changes indicate that he wants out?
This could all be for nothing.
People have a propensity to change up their profile frequently, even some of the league’s brightest stars.
This could also be a subliminal message to the team, either to trade Harden or to send some other statement their way.
Regardless of Embiid’s intentions, he has gotten the attention of fans across the entire league.
With two months to go until the regular season begins, the 76ers have a lot of situations to monitor.
They’ll need to figure out the latest with Harden, and if he’s planning to sit out.
If he does plan to miss time, they might decide to trade him, getting value from him rather than losing out.
They also need to talk with Embiid, ensuring his future with the organization remains intact.
