Daily News | Former Kansas star Joel Embiid: ‘I don’t like Villanova this weekend’
DETROIT — No one in the Philadelphia area, including diehard Villanova fans, should be surprised or upset with Joel Embiid’s rooting interest in the Final Four.
“Well, I’m going to be supporting Kansas,” Embiid said Thursday. “That’s for sure. I don’t like Villanova this weekend.”That’s because he was a Kansas standout during his only season of college basketball, in 2013-14. His Jayhawks will face Villanova at 6:09 p.m. Saturday at the Superdome in New Orleans. Then archrivals Duke and North Carolina will square off at 8:49 p.m. The winners will meet in Monday night’s NCAA championship game.
“I’m happy for them, happy for [Kansas head] coach [Bill] Self and all of the other guys whether it’s coach [Norm] Roberts or coach [Kurtis] Townsend.” Embiid said. “I’m happy that they are doing a great job and being a part of the Final Four. I wasn’t fortunate because I didn’t play in the tournament, but I’m sure it is a great experience. They got a great team to go all the way. So I’m going to be watching and hoping they win it all.
