It has been three days, and newly drafted Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid hasn’t received an answer from LeBron James.
Embiid tweeted at James on Tuesday trying to convince the highly sought-after free agent to take his talents to the City of Brotherly Love. It’s an effort that was doomed from the start, but that hasn’t stopped Embiid from tweeting about it every day since then.
@KingJames hey bro hope you're having a good day…… Want to join us in philly?? Peace

Our fingers are crossed that James at least acknowledges Embiid’s efforts, even if he does give him a no.
