Yesterday was a busy day in Philadelphia. Several reports came up saying that Ben Simmons asked the team to be traded and he's even willing to not report to the training camp in the case a trade won't happen. In the last few years, there've been several rumors about the relationship between Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons not being very good and those whispers are again very actual. But Embiid used his Twitter profile to stop all the voices going around in the last few hours.

"Stop using my name to push people's agendas", Embiid tweeted. "I love playing with Ben. Stats don't lie. He's an amazing player and we all didn't get the job done. I hope everyone is back cause we know we're good enough to win".

Embiid also stated that media always try to exaggerate things to increase followers.
