Philadelphia 76ers star big man Joel Embiid does it all. He steps out and knocks down jumpers. He punishes mismatches on the low block. He gets to the free-throw line and knocks them down consistently. He is an elite defender. He can score at all three levels and he does it at an efficient rate.

Earlier this offseason, Stephen Curry signed a one-year, $62 million extension with the Warriors that made him the first American athlete to make north of $60 million in a single season. Embiid now joins the club as he is expected to make $69 million in the final year of his latest contract.

Philadelphia 76ers star Paul George comes in ranked as the 20th-best player in the NBA heading into the new season.
