The Philadelphia 76ers have had a rough season, and tensions seem to be boiling over. With Joel Embiid sidelined for the rest of the year due to a left knee injury, the team has struggled, currently holding a 23-47 record. Amid these frustrations, former Sixer Georges Niang stirred controversy with a comment aimed at Quentin Grimes during a recent game.
An eyewitness reported that Niang told Grimes, “If Joel was here, your a– would be in the corner. Joel here, you’re in the corner. Tyrese here, you’re in the corner.“ The statement, seemingly dismissing Grimes’ role, has sparked reactions among fans and analysts.
Philadelphia, already dealing with Embiid’s absence and Paul George’s injury, continues to face challenges as they prepare to take on the New Orleans Pelicans (19-53) on March 24. With tensions rising, the Sixers must find a way to stay united and push through their difficult season.
