Add a few more years to the Sixers' longest-tenured contract. Superstar center Joel Embiid has agreed on a three-year, approximately $192.9 million extension with the team that runs through the 2028-29 season, ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reported Friday morning.
The success on the hardwood earned Embiid the max contracts and endorsements. Not the most financially savvy guy, he turned to the founder and CEO of Fanatics, Michael Rubin, who was also a former part-owner of the 76ers. The two had developed a close friendship over time.
