Joel Embiid disses Rihanna

Back in 2014, prior to the start of his rookie season, Joel Embiid went on a social media campaign to score a date with Rihanna. She was not interested and told him to come back when he was an All-Star. Well, here we are, four years later and Embiid is now an all-star. Fans swarmed Rihanna's social media to remind her of the offer, but it appears the Sixers center is no longer interested. And judging by the gaggle of SI Swimsuit models hanging out with Embiid at SI's Sportsman of the Year party last month, I'm not surprised Embiid is keeping his options open.
