Things got testy between the Sixers and Bucks last night after Eric Bledsoe and Joel Embiid started playing dodgeball. Embiid’s toss at Bledsoe wasn’t harmless but it wasn’t exactly malicious, and Bledsoe responded by whipping the ball full-force at Embiid. Both teams got together for a little pushing and shoving, but didn’t really fight.
One of the guys playing peacemaker there came running off the baseline in a blue suit with a credential hanging around his neck and several viral posts on social media identified him as Stephen A. Smith.
