Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid discussed his decision to represent Team USA, noting the contrasting approaches of France and the U.S.
Embiid, who recently acquired American citizenship and is set to make his international debut, was close to choosing France before selecting the United States.
He revealed that France’s approach felt rushed, as they imposed a deadline on his decision.
“I kind of felt a rush in that decision because I wanted to take as much time as possible,” Embiid said.
