Philadelphia 76ers rookie Jahlil Okafor looks like a sore loser. In this grainy video, the NBA rookie was caught on camera punching out an alleged heckler. The fight took place in Boston after the Sixers lost their 16th consecutive game to start the season against the Boston Celtics.
Things escalated when Okafor and an unnamed teammate were leaving a night club called Storyville Boston. Apparently someone was screaming “76ers suck!” at Okafor, and the 19-year-old NBA rookie was not pleased with the taunting. After some initial pushing and shoving, Okafor takes one swing at the alleged heckler and decks him.
Okafor quickly fled the scene with his friends and no arrests were made.
(FWIW, This isn’t that different from my family’s Thanksgiving dinners.)
