Joel Embiid "Doesn't Like Shooting 3s"

Joel Embiid "Doesn't Like Shooting 3s"

Joel Embiid from the Philadelphia 76ers has just come right out and said it: "I don't like shooting 3s. I only do it because of the spacing that we have, and sometimes I have to take them. I have to be on the perimeter, just getting guys open, because of all the attention that sometimes it seems are presented to me.

"I don't like shooting 3s. I only do it because I got to make it work, but the last couple games, mainly the last two games, my mindset has been, if I'm on the perimeter, it doesn't mean that I have to shoot 3s. Even if I'm wide open, I think I had a couple of opportunities tonight and last game against the [New York] Knicks where I could've shot it, but I took one dribble and I took a midway shot.

"That's what I'm comfortable with, and it's working."
