The Embiid v. KAT Fight Broke the Internet
The buildup to Wednesday night’s matchup of the undefeated Sixers and T’Wolves was supposed to feature a heated battle on the court between Joel Embiid and Karl-Anthony Towns. Fast forward an hour or so and there was a full-fledged melee. While the scrap was great TV, the reaction on Twitter was even better:
