The man is too reckless with his body
I know this sounds crazy but he supposedly does this on purpose to protect his body actually it is how he has been less injury prone the last 2 seasons, as he used to fall on particular parts of his body causing injuries now he makes sure he lands in a way that spreads out the force of falling. https://www.nbcsports.com/nba/news/joel-embiid-falls-down-a-lot-because-his-doctors-told-him-to
You shouldn't fall with full force onto your joints at his weight. I'm sure the dipshit teenagers in this thread will understand.
Yeah, jockeys are taught this when falling off their mounts. Tuck and roll.
