The Sixers now have their Big 3 of Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey all locked up for the foreseeable future. George signed a 4-year $212 million deal in the offseason while Maxey signed a 5-year $204 million deal to stay with the Sixers.

Surprisingly, Embiid became a big topic on the internet this week, from the mounting pressure to deliver a Sixers' championship to being called one of the worst players of his generation.

Again, Embiid is arguably the best player in the NBA when healthy. But the problem is his health is always a question. He’s never played more than 68 games in a single season. Last year, he only played 39 total after tearing his meniscus before the All-Star break. That’s not ideal for a player a team will be investing more than $60 million into.

Before Tyrese Maxey reacted to the news, 76ers superstar Joel Embiid announced his $193 million extension, and he said kindly to his fans. Embiid shared a heartfelt message, vowing to stay with the 76ers for the rest of his NBA career.

Embiid is unquestionably worth every penny right now, but this is a big bet on him staying healthy the next five years.

The Philadelphia 76ers were able to come to terms with their superstar big man Joel Embiid on a 3-year $193 million max extension. The Sixers have their Big 3 of Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and Paul George locked up for the long term.
