Joel Embiid attempted to protect himself thoroughly from COVID-19 when the Philadelphia 76ers traveled to Orlando to begin the NBA's "bubble" format in Disney World.

Embiid arrived at the airport wearing a full, protective suit with gloves and a mask.

Embiid's teammate Kyle O'Quinn appeared to get a kick out of it.

While Embiid's suit may have been done with a wink, while speaking to media this week before the Sixers' trip to Orlando, Embiid expressed doubts about the bubble and concerns about the long-term effects of contracting COVID-19.

"I hated the idea ... all I want to be is, you know, stay healthy, and stay safe, keep the people around me safe," Embiid said, according to ESPN's Tim Bontemps.

"I want to make sure I'm able to live for a long time and not have any sort of I don't know, consequences in the future. Some type of, I don't know, from this, if I ever were to be in a situation of getting the virus. But like I said it's unfortunate. I'm not a big fan of the idea, but then again, I'm going to do my job, I'm not going to let the city down, I'm going to go represent my city, that's what I've always done, my family, and my teammates."

Embiid said he doubted that every NBA player would follow the league's protocols, which only lets players off the Disney campus with prior approval for specific reasons (like a family emergency or event). Players will be tested daily for COVID-19.

"I know myself, I know I'm not going to put everybody else at risk," Embiid said.

"But the question is 'Is everybody else going to do the same?' And I surely, just being around this business, I surely don't think so."
