Here is the updated depth chart for the Philadelphia 76ers in the 2024-25 season at the center spot behind Joel Embiid.

In mid-July, Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid became eligible to sign a three-year extension worth up to nearly $193 million. If he doesn't agree to an extension by Oct. 21, he'll have to wait until next summer before revisiting talks.

Embiid has the respect of his peers around the league. There are plenty of players around the NBA who are impressed and in awe of what he can do and therefore, he gets shoutouts from some of the best in the league.

The Philadelphia 76ers will feature a new star trio highlighted by superstar big man Joel Embiid who can do it all on the offensive end. The big fella can score at all three levels from the perimeter, the mid-range, and on the low block while also getting to the free-throw line rather easily.

The big fella is due for a 3-year $193.5 million extension--a topic the NBA Wire team discussed --and that is the next item on the list of things to do for the Sixers to handle. Embiid is one of the best players in the game and averaged 34.

Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid comes in ranked as the 5th-best player in the NBA heading into the 2024-25 season.
