Warning: Story contains graphic language
The feud between Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid and hype man extraordinaire LaVar Ball just won't die.
At Variety's Sports and Entertainment Summit, Embiid stood by the "fuck LaVar Ball" comment he recently uttered on Instagram Live, stating that he was "glad" he said it.

"I think most people have been wanting to say that," he said.
The Big Baller Brand spokesman responded to Embiid's initial comment by citing his lack of intelligence as the reason he chose to express himself with profanity.
Though the war of words isn't likely to lead anywhere, it continues to make for good headlines.
