Embiid was the 7-foot, 280-pound player in the dance circle. He was also, somehow, lifted up on a chair as well.
The five-time NBA All-Star who has finished runner-up in MVP voting the last two seasons definitely deserved some rest and relaxation after the season he put together for the 76ers in 2021-22.

Philadelphia didn’t exactly finish the season the way it wanted to.
The 76ers, while acquiring James Harden to bolster the backcourt, finished 51-31 and got the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference. The team beat the Toronto Raptors in six games but lost to the Miami Heat in the semifinals in six games.
