Joel Embiid nabbed two Home Run Derby balls that look tiny in his massive hand
When he's not cursing out LaVar Ball, The Process is collecting baseballs
When he's not cursing out LaVar Ball (and getting hit with a $10,000 fine), Joel Embiid is collecting baseballs.
The Sixers phenom, enjoying the offseason in Miami, decided to take in Monday night's Home Run Derby with Philly rapper Meek Mill at the Clevelander, a nightclub located in the outfield of Marlins Park.
Yankees sensation Aaron Judge was the winner of the contest, slamming 47 home runs (four over 500 feet) that totaled 3.9 miles. But when Twins third baseman Miguel Sano sent a blast over the left field wall, Embiid wisely kept his gargantuan hands away from the descending baseball.
Regardless, Embiid somehow ended the night with not one, but two commemorative balls, which frankly looked like golf balls in the hands of the 7-foot-2 big man.
By comparison, here's how a basketball looks in Embiid's massive hands.
Embiid seemed like a big kid enjoying the game, so it's fitting he took out some time to take a picture with all the kids who collected fly balls during the broadcast.
While it was all in good fun, you can expect a segment or two on Philly sports talk radio today about Embiid putting himself in danger. At least this time he wasn't dancing on stage during a concert.
