Minutes after his 76ers defeated the Nets to take a commanding 3-1 series lead over the Brooklyn Nets, Joel Embiid stood next to TNT sideline reporter Rosalyn Gold-Onwude.
Holding the microphone just high enough for the 7-foot-2 Cameroonian to comfortably answer her questions, she asked about the third quarter incident incited by Jared Dudley that led to a flagrant foul and two ejections.
Before responding, Embiid looked away for half a second and smirked.
“I mean, first of all, he’s a nobody,” he said, referring to Dudley.
Jared Dudley stood outside the Nets locker room wearing a plaid gray blazer, as if to suggest that he was dressed for a business trip.
