I wonder if Joel Embiid knows how to say “Trust the Process” in Latvian.
Wednesday night, the Sixers phenom caught at least part of an interview between New York Knicks president Phil Jackson and MSG Network’s Al Trautwig about trading away Latvia’s favorite son, 21-year-old big man Kristaps Porzingis.
Jackson conformed reports that the Knicks have received phone calls from teams interested in acquiring the 7-foot-2 power forward, but also took the opportunity to call him out for skipping his postseason exit interview back in April.
“I don’t think I’ve ever had a player over 25 years of coaching, maybe 30, not coming to an exit meeting, so it’s not happened to me,” Jackson said.
