Shaquille O’Neal expressed strong confidence in Joel Embiid during his appearance on “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” predicting that Embiid will remain healthy this season and dominate on the revamped Philadelphia 76ers squad. O’Neal believes Embiid will surpass Nikola Jokic and be recognized as the best big man in the league, despite Embiid’s history of injuries, having not played over 70 games in a season since joining the NBA. With new additions like LeBron James and Jaylen Brown, the pressure is on Embiid to contribute significantly to the team’s championship aspirations. If Embiid stays healthy, O’Neal suggests his performance could lead to the 76ers’ first title in 44 years.
