Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid is the latest NBA player to sweat his way through the "Hot Ones" spicy wings challenge.
Between eating progressively hotter chicken wings, Embiid spoke about rapper Meek Mill's return to Philadelphia, what it was like to meet Michael Jordan, and why he enjoys dunking on strangers (something he's been doing a lot this offseason). He also addressed why he decided to express his affection for Rihanna publicly.
"I don't slide in DMs. (It's) something that I've always been scared of," Embiid said. "You know, I'm a jokester. The whole thing with Rihanna is all fun."
Not only did Embiid complete the challenge, he did so without a sip of milk or water.
