76ers MVP Joel Embiid Follows Phillies Star Bryce Harper?s Footsteps Days After $330 Million Man?s Iconic Eagles Gesture

Philadelphia’s sports scene hits different. Known for its popular teams, the city knows how to show support. After all, Trea Turner is living proof. But another MLB fan favorite is currently Bryce Harper, the man who has single-handedly changed the Phillies’ fortunes. The reigning World Series MVP was instrumental in taking the team to the Fall Classic last year, even if they didn’t win. Simply put, the veteran loves the city.

Harper raised eyebrows when he returned from a Tommy John surgery in just five and a half months in 2023. But true to form, the slugger is continuing to prove his $330 million worth. In addition, he frequently shows support and awareness about the city’s culture, never failing to win hearts. Taking a page out of his book, the Philadelphia 76ers’ MVP recently showed the MLB team some support too.

Days After Bryce Harper Wears Eagles Socks, Joel Embiid Reps the Phillies

From repping the Oakland A’s amid ongoing fan protest for ballpark relocation to honoring the Phillies mascot, Bryce Harper is no stranger to taking his fashion game to the next level. Athletes don’t always have the option of being versatile with their uniforms but some make do with minimal changes. On Sept. 25, 2023, the slugger wore the dark greens of the Philadelphia Eagles on his socks, subtly repping his city’s NFL team.

In a similar move, the 76ers’ star player Joel Embiid was spotted wearing a Phillies shirt recently. An NBA podcaster just posted a picture of the center in a light blue jersey with a huge ‘P’ on the pocket. “Our MVP taking a page out of the Bryce Harper Philly playbook & we absolutely love to see it.”

The Phillies’ DH has clearly had a huge influence on athletes – he’s not just doing it to gain fan favor, it seems like Harper genuinely cares for the city he represents. It is the ‘City of Brotherly Love’ after all! And sports audiences love him for it.
