Joel Embiid finally fulfilled his dream after failing two years in a row. The best player for the Philadelphia 76ers has gone a long way from his days as a skinny child in Cameroon to his current position as NBA MVP. A special tribute honouring Embiid was held for the legendary centre prior to Game 3's start. On Friday night, when he was named the first winner of the Michael Jordan award, hundreds of Sixers supporters yelled "MVP." The NBA fans were moved to tears when Embiid and his two-year-old kid shared an emotional moment during his statement to the audience.

Family has been a constant support in MVP joel emdiid's life

Family has had a significant role in the basketball career of the six-time All-Star. His MVP speech focused on the inspiration his team gives him to work hard and keep improving.

Joel Embiid shares an emotional moment with his son during his MVP speech

Since Allen Iverson won the award in 2001, the Philadelphia 76ers had not had a "Most Valuable Player" in their lineup. When Joel Embiid sobbed during the announcement of the trophy, the NBA community understood what it meant to him to win. With his mother by his side and a large crowd of spectators, the Sixers centre seemed to be in good spirits. However, as his two-year-old son Arthur came racing towards him on the court, it didn't take long for Embiid to start crying.

“Honestly, he is the main reason why I am really here you know. Becoming a father changed my whole life. You know, I just wanted to show him a good example and I am glad he is here with us. My fiance, she has been you know, a big part of it,” said Joel Embiid as he held Arthur in his arms.
