Joel Embiid returned from his rehab trip to Qatar recently, and he’s looking quicker and healthier, according to a report by Calkins Media’s Tom Moore. Due to foot injuries, Embiid has yet to play a game in the NBA since being drafted third by the 76ers in 2014.

Before the Sixers-Pelicans game on Tuesday, he was caught doing some interesting kicking motions. Maybe it’s a warmup activity, but Nick M added the Kung Fu Fighting music, which makes it impossible to think Embiid is doing anything other than karate kicks.

It’s hope for you Sixers fans. If you’d like to see more of Embiid warming up, Derek Bodner, filmed a portion of his workout from earlier last month.
