Joel Embiid went viral during the NBA trade deadline for his reaction to the Ben Simmons trade. Now he is going viral again for meeting with the man behind the original meme.

The man behind the meme goes by “Big Fendi TV” on Instagram. He attended NBA All-Star Weekend in Cleveland and even took a photo with Embiid:
