With the Philadelphia 76ers missing out on the postseason and since his season ended early due to injury, it feels like forever since Joel Embiid has been in our NBA lives. Thankfully though, Embiid's trademark wit is still intact as evidenced by his latest tweet.
Taking to Twitter to announced that he will be representing the Sixers at the NBA Draft Lottery, Embiid did so in a way that only he would do. He did it by poking fun of himself.
Excited to represent Philly at the Lottery and also excited to see which young fella is gonna have this draft reaction when they get drafted pic.twitter.com/ljVqX2WhJw

Embiid made this face when he was drafted by the Sixers in 2014 and his expression immediately became a viral meme. Of course since it is a meme, Embiid expertly used it in his tweet on Tuesday, which is simply perfect.
The NBA Draft Lottery will take place on May 16, a day that perhaps Embiid will make a new meme-worthy facial expression.
