“Obviously, I got my home country, Cameroon, which I love, and the U.S., where I’ve been for 14 years now, and then France, where I have a lot of family,” Embiid said. “I kind of felt rushed in that decision. I wanted to take as much time as possible, and it didn’t help that France had put an ultimatum on when the decision had to be made.”

Embiid said he wasn’t aware there was a timeline, but he “saw it on Twitter” and was surprised because the U.S. was willing to give him as much time as necessary to make a decision.
