Step aside Rihanna. Philadelphia 76ers star big man Joel Embiid has a new girlfriend.
Embiid is dating Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Anne De Paula, and Sixers owner Michael Rubin is having some fun with the young couple.

No, Joel Embiid and Anne De Paula are not engaged. Rubin is just trolling Embiid, who has become the King of Twitter and social media with his savage posts.
Embiid is clearly winning off the court, and he’s not too bad on the court either. Through the first four games of the season, Joel Embiid is averaging 29.5 points, 10.8 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game while shooting 51.9 percent from the field, 25.0 percent from beyond the arc, and 81.1 percent from the free-throw line.
The Sixers, however, have started the season 2-2.
Joel Embiid used to constantly shoot his shot at Rihanna on Twitter. He doesn’t have to anymore. Embiid and the Sixers are playing the Milwaukee Bucks on the road Wednesday night. There’s a saying that a happy athlete off the court is a more productive one on the court.
It’s safe to say that Joel Embiid is enjoying his time with Anne De Paula off the court. Expect to see her at all the Sixers’ home games this season.
