Joel Embiid got into an altercation with Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Marcus Hayes, and the NBA is investigating the incident.
On Saturday night, following the game between the Philadelphia 76ers and Memphis Grizzlies, Embiid confronted Hayes over his recent column. In the essay, Hayes criticized the player’s professionalism and mentioned Embiid’s younger brother, who died in 2014.
Embiid has been dealing with fans and reporters criticizing him as he has yet to step foot on the court this season thanks to left knee injury management. It didn’t help that the 76ers announced he wouldn’t be playing in back-to-back games this year.
Embiid has been vocal about people dragging him for missing games, but his family being thrown into the mix appeared to be the last straw.
According to ESPN, reporters entered the 76ers locker room for the usual postgame roundup, but Embiid stood up with conviction and shared some tense words with 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,” Embiid said to Hayes, according to ESPN.
Embiid allegedly got more heated and began hurling profanities at Hayes, who apologized to no avail.
The situation became more tense after Embiid raised his voice and eventually shoved Hayes. The 76ers public relations chief separated the two men, and security personnel asked reporters not to share what happened, but Embiid made it clear he didn’t care what any of them did.
The team’s president of basketball operations, Daryl Morey, told ESPN that the organization had been notified about the altercation, and it was investigating what transpired alongside the NBA.
“We are aware of reports of an incident in the Sixers locker room this evening and are commencing an investigation,” a spokesman for the NBA said in a statement.
Embiid’s frustrations with Hayes should come as no surprise, especially since he was deeply affected by his brother’s death. In his essay for The Player’s Tribune, Embiid reflected on the pain he suffered after his brother’s death.
“Arthur was involved in an accident back home. He was walking back home from school with some of his classmates when he was struck by a truck. Just like that, my brother was gone,” Joel wrote. “He was so full of life, and somehow he was just gone. Nobody could believe it. It was a shock to our whole family, and honestly, it’s something we’re still dealing with.”
