13 Sixers, Bryan Colangelo conspiracy theories: Did he actually tweet? Was it his wife? Sam Hinkie? Joel Embiid?

One of the strangest sagas in the history of Sixers basketball might come to its conclusion in the coming days, as the Philadelphia Inquirer has reported that the organization might fire team president Bryan Colangelo in the coming days in the wake of a Twitter scandal.

The Sixers are conducting an internal investigation into allegations that Colangelo used five fake Twitter accounts to leak information about players (including Markelle Fultz, Jahlil Okafor and Nerlens Noel) while also bashing All-Star center Joel Embiid and rip former general manager Sam Hinkie.

Internet detectives have uncovered evidence that indicates it was most likely Colangelo or someone close to him.
