“Last night I was chillin, just drinking my Shirley Temples, but I was kinda tired so I was sitting down the whole time just meeting people, having conversations, and making connections. For the parties I don't know, I usually figure something out ten minutes before I have to go somewhere, so we will see.”
This isn't the first time that Embiid has talked about his love for Shirley Temples. Last year in a Ride Along Video by Vice he explained.
“Mainly Shirley Temples. I drink Shirley Temples by the pitcher. I usually drink three or four pitchers per day. Nobody really cares about the media. They’re gonna have something to say — 300 pounds or Shirley Temples. I’m just gonna let my game do the talking. I think some people are gonna be surprised, and I can’t wait to show off.”
Embiid has also not been afraid to talk about his love of Shirley Temples on Twitter.
