According to The Takeout, Joel Embiid, who plays for the Philadelphia 76ers, is the perfect person to create a Mountain Dew hot sauce. That’s because he once appeared on an episode of Hot Ones and ate all ten chicken wings, including one doused in a sauce that measured 2,000,000+ on the Scoville scale.
