Joel Embiid hilariously trolled Donovan Mitchell on Twitter after he got him a technical foul
Maybe Embiid has some pull with the officials?
As good as Joel Embiid is at basketball, he might be an even better internet troll. The dude is legitimately hilarious. He always has been.
We saw that during Wednesday night’s game against the Jazz when Embiid lobbied for a technical foul on Donovan Mitchell.
The 76ers center drew some contact while shooting and was headed to the free-throw line when he noticed Mitchell was jawing something. He heard what he said and got the official’s attention while pointing at him and lobbying for a technical foul. And it totally worked!
He then used video of this in one of his tweets. It was amazing.
Mitchell saw this on Twitter and got a good laugh out of it. At least it seems like he did, anyway.
Embiid then reminded him that it was the second time he got him T’d up.
And he’s not lying! It totally is.
Mitchell really might be on to something with those ref complaints. Either way, this is incredibly funny.
