I'm very certain Embiid is not the best post scorer in the league. One of his biggest faults is he settles for too many jumpers and this is well known

These days he has changed his game a bit and improved in recent seasons, operating more from the FT line elbow area, to better handle double teams. He's also such an elite shooter now better than ever before and his mid-range work is just unfair. He scores from anywhere.
Also, fewer of his shot attempts are from 3pt% than ever before. He's more selective on threes and only takes them when given the right opportunity.
