By Josh Liddick, Sports Talk Philly StaffSixers' Joel Embiid stays firm in 4th place in NBA All-Star Voting update

NBA All-Star Voting was updated today and the voting pretty much looks the same in terms of Sixers' center Joel Embiid's placing. Embiid still has a grasp on fourth place and trails Kevin Love by just around 17,000 votes in the Eastern Conference frontcourt.

LeBron James has whopping hold on first place with Giannis Antetokounmpo in second. If Embiid manages to pass Kevin Love in the voting, he will be named an All-Star starter in just his rookie year. Whether that happens or not, it appears Embiid is going to be an All-Star in his first season playing in the league. 

If fans want to assure that Embiid starts in the All-Star game, they can go on Twitter and vote for Embiid by using #NBAVote along with Embiid's name.
