NBA Opens Investigation After Joel Embiid Confronts, Shoves Philadelphia Columnist
SHARE

In a heated locker room altercation, Joel Embiid confronted Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Marcus Hayes after the struggling 76ers lost to the Memphis Grizzlies. Embiid was visibly angry and shouted at Hayes, taking issue with the columnist mentioning his late brother and son in previous articles questioning his professionalism and fitness level. The NBA has initiated an investigation into the incident.

During the confrontation, Embiid warned Hayes not to bring up his family again, using profanity in his response to the columnist’s apology. Despite Hayes offering an apology, Embiid was not receptive, emphasizing that it was not the first time such comments had been made. The altercation escalated when Embiid pushed Hayes on the shoulder, prompting team officials to intervene and clear reporters from the scene.

Embiid had previously criticized Hayes during a press conference, expressing frustration with the columnist’s insinuations about his commitment to the team and the game. Hayes had suggested that the 76ers consider refunding fans when Embiid is unable to play. Despite the controversy, Embiid reiterated his dedication to the team and his determination to return to the court soon.

The outcome of the NBA’s investigation will determine if any disciplinary action is necessary. The incident underscores tensions between Embiid and the media, with the player feeling disrespected and unfairly criticized. The situation remains unresolved as fans await Embiid’s return to the lineup.
