Philadelphia 76ers big man Joel Embiid didn't hold back on his feelings about LaVar Ball during an Instagram Live session Tuesday.
The NSFW message presumably came in response to comments Ball made during a recent interview on 97.5 The Fanatic after Embiid and teammate Ben Simmons fired shots at him on draft night.
"When you don't win and don't even make the playoffs, and don't even stay on the court long enough, that's the best thing you can do is tweet, make some stuff," Ball told hosts Rob Ellis and Geoff Mosher, according to Liberty Ballers. "Ain't nobody else doing that, because they're working on their game in the gym. These guys ain't played a game, always hurt, and at the bottom of the totem pole.
"So guess what, get your asses off the goddamn Tweeter, and get in the gym."
