Joel Embiid 'Moving On' From Kim Kardashian to Rihanna

Joel Embiid, who is the first round draft pick for the Philadelphia 76ers, has earned the monicker of being the most entertaining basketball star on Twitter as he hits on famous Hollywood stars on social media. 

Embiid earlier expressed his admiration for Kim Kardashian on Twitter and later on claimed that he was not aware of her marriage to rapper Kanye West, Fan Sided reports. The same report notes that the basketball rookie has now moved on with Kardashian and is now setting his sight on pop singer Rihanna.

On his Twitter account, Embiid announced that he has already forgotten Kardashian because Rihanna is now his new focus.

"BREAKING NEWS: Moving on from kk to Rihanna," he posted on his Twitter account on Tuesday.

Later on, he tagged Rihanna in a post and asked her out to dinner at Giorgios. He went on saying that in life, he needs to experience new things and that he realized that he should shift his attention to a new girl.

His series of Twitter posts also claim that Rihanna is considering his offer. And today, Embiid posted the lyrics of Rihanna's hit song "Rude Boy" followed by a tweet saying that it is his "favourite song."

Fan Sided says that Embiid is a great one with the keyboard on his hands. The same report notes that in case his career in the NBA goes worse, Embiid surely has a great future as a social media ambassador.

The Herald Sun notes that Rihanna's Twitter account is void of any sign of Embiid and that the pop superstar has yet to reply to the basketball star's invitation. The report also says that Kardashian and Rihanna are both big basketball fans who are usually seen on the sidelines watching games.

The Washington Post earlier said that the No. 3 draft pick is slowly getting attention because of his Twitter posts and that he could use this as a past time while he recovers from his right foot fracture.

Embiid suffered a stress fracture on his navicular bone and had to undergo surgery for it. He was also not able to attend the draft in New York but still emerged as No. 3 in the draft.

Despite this, the player is expected to recover before the start of the NBA season and while he is doing so, the whole world should really be prepared for his endless tweets about Hollywood girls.
