Joel Embiid is back, baby.
In his preseason debut Wednesday, the talented 7-footer nailed his first jumper to put the Philadelphia 76ers on the board against the Brooklyn Nets.
Embiid, 23, hasn't suited up for Philly since January, and underwent knee surgery in March. He officially inked a five-year, $148-million contract extension on Tuesday.
