Joel Embiid continues to work out on his own as he attempts to get healthy for next season. 

Embiid recently returned from Qatar where he rehabbed at Aspetar.

Embiid, however, has been around his Philadelphia 76ers' teammates and there's always a positivity to his demeanor.

"All of us, you get most enthused, most confident, when you feel good about yourself," Brett Brown said.

"It's very monitored," said Brown. "It's very structured. It's deliberate practice and it needs to be. Any excitement that we see coming back it can't be misinterpreted or abused where you do something longer or harder or more of than you should have. There's a diet. There is a prescribed duration of drills and time."

"He's like a brother to me," said Jahlil Okafor. "I love Jo-Jo. He just picks everybody up."
