The NBA is investigating an altercation that came about on Saturday night time involving Philadelphia 76ers celebrity Joel Embiid and a columnist masking the group.
The reported incident came about within the 76ers locker room following their 124-107 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies and stemmed from a column written by the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Marcus Hayes this week that referred to Embiid’s son, in addition to Embiid’s deceased brother.
Embiid fired back at Hayes throughout a information convention earlier this week after which had an opportunity to confront him on Saturday night time.
Whereas no video of the altercation has surfaced, a number of stories are popping out of the 76ers locker room from those that witnessed it.
Philadelphia author Kyle Neubeck described the incident intimately, saying that it began as a verbal confrontation that went on for about 90 seconds to 2 minutes and ultimately resulted in Embiid shoving Hayes.
