Joel Embiid may still trust Hinkie's 'process'
Philadelphia 76ers big man Joel Embiid was in the news Saturday for blocking a small child's shot at the team's "Beach Bash" and talking about making his NBA debut this season.
After the event, a fan tweeted out a signed photo of Embiid, with "Trust the process" written underneath the center's John Hancock - quite possibly meaning that No. 21 is using the mantra of his fired boss Sam Hinkie.

It's completely believable that Embiid would write this. He's already used the mantra publicly since Hinkie was let go in April.
Should Embiid choose to make this his signature line however, then it will be impossible not to like him. As if copiously drinking Shirley Temples wasn't enough of a reason.
