Joel Embiid Shoves Reporter Marcus Hayes After Article References His Late Brother; NBA Investigating
Nov 3, 2024, 03:08 AM
Philadelphia 76ers star center Joel Embiid reportedly got into an altercation with Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Marcus Hayes following the team's loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. Embiid allegedly shoved Hayes in the locker room after taking issue with a recent column that referenced his late brother and son. Embiid reportedly told Hayes, 'You can say I suck, you can say whatever you want about me as a player. Don’t ever put my dead brother’s name in your mouth. Don’t talk about my family, don’t bring them into this.' No punches were thrown, and the NBA has announced it is investigating the incident. There is currently no video of the altercation. The article by Hayes was criticized for including personal references to Embiid's family.
