Report: Jahlil Okafor tried to use fake ID at Philadelphia bar
Bill Streicher / USA TODAY Sports
News of more off-court trouble has surfaced involving Jahlil Okafor.
The Philadelphia 76ers rookie reportedly presented a fake ID at Misconduct Tavern in Center City in late October, according to CSN Philly's John Gonzalez.
The 19-year-old big man was refused service at the bar, with a source telling Gonzalez that he was surprised because Okafor is "a big guy" and "famous" and "pretty easy to recognize."
The news comes just days after reports surfaced that Okafor was stopped for speeding over the Ben Franklin Bridge at 108 mph, and after footage was released of the rookie allegedly punching a man outside a bar in Boston.
Okafor also reportedly had a gun pointed at him in October during an altercation outside a nightclub.
