Philadelphia 76ers star center Joel Embiid, sidelined with a knee injury, has found himself in hot water after a post-game altercation with a reporter.

The incident, which occurred Saturday night following the 76ers’ 124-107 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, reportedly involved Embiid shoving a columnist in the locker room. Embiid was apparently upset with a recent article that referenced his late brother and young son.

While no punches were thrown, the NBA is expected to investigate the incident and determine potential ramifications for Embiid. The incident adds to the already challenging start to the season for the 76ers, who are currently struggling with a 1-4 record.

Embiid, who is yet to play a game this season, has been recovering from a knee injury and dealing with criticism for his absence. The team has also been hampered by the absence of fellow star Paul George, who is sidelined with a knee injury.

This incident highlights the frustration of both Embiid and the 76ers as they navigate a difficult early season plagued by injuries and a lackluster performance on the court.
