Joel Embiid was not happy that details of the Philadelphia 76ers recent team meeting leaked. Embiid countered the reports about the meeting, while also adding a message for whoever leaked the details to the media.
“Whoever leaked that is a real piece of (expletive). But even then, we talked about a lot of things. I don’t want to get into the details, but that whole thing probably took 30 seconds,” Embiid said.
Reports came out earlier this week that in an hour-long meeting that involved players and coaches, that Tyrese Maxey called out Embiid for regularly being late to team activities. Maxey said Embiid’s tardiness impacts everyone, from coaches to players.
Embiid also said he wasn’t late as often as portrayed in reports, but that he appreciates his bond with Maxey and the Sixers point guard wanting him to be better.
“That’s the relationship we have. Nothing malicious. I like when people are telling me what I’m not doing good, what I need to do better. Even though that part (the tardiness) maybe happened once or twice, when I wasn’t playing,” Embiid said about his relationship with Maxey.
