Philadelphia 76ers baller Joel Embiid was caught in an embarrassing situation after he publicly asked Kim Kardashian to DM him on Twitter not knowing she's married. The 7-foot baller didn't hide the fact that he was trying to hit on the reality star when he tweeted, "Hey I want you to come slide in my DMs @KimKardashian." 

He quickly apologized after a fan alerted him that the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star recently married Kanye West. 

"Oh I didn't know you were married sorry @KimKardashian just saw it from the fan's tweet... have a nice day." 

What do you think -- was Joel trolling or truly serious with his tweet?
