Joel Embiid didn't waste time seemingly commenting on the reported trade of disgruntled Philadelphia 76ers All-Star Ben Simmons to the Brooklyn Nets ahead of Thursday's deadline, posting the infamous "RIP Bozo" meme.

The original caption on the photo, initially published prior to May 2015, according to Know Your Meme, detailed the subject stopping by "one of (his) biggest hater's funeral" to make sure he was, in fact, dead.
Embiid and Simmons were co-stars of the 76ers' "Process" rebuild after Philadelphia drafted Simmons first overall in 2016.
