Joel Embiid Shoves Columnist Marcus Hayes After Sixers Loss; NBA Investigating
Nov 3, 2024, 03:35 AM
Philadelphia 76ers star center Joel Embiid was involved in an altercation with Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Marcus Hayes following the team's loss on Saturday night, which dropped the Sixers to a 1-4 record. Embiid confronted Hayes in the locker room over a recent column that referenced his late brother and son. Embiid reportedly told Hayes, "The next time you bring up my dead brother and my son again, you are going to see what I'm going to do to you and I'm going to have to... live with the consequences." The confrontation escalated when Embiid shoved Hayes on the shoulder. The NBA has launched an investigation into the incident, with a spokesperson stating, "We are aware of reports of an incident in the Sixers locker room this evening and are commencing an investigation." No punches were thrown, and Embiid briefly returned to his locker before leaving.
