Joel Embiid ejected for going crazy on official over Victor Wembanyama charge call

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid was ejected from Monday night’s game against the San Antonio Spurs after a series of events led to a pair of technical fouls in the second quarter.

Embiid had the ball at the top of the key and drove into the chest of Spurs star Victor Wembanyama. A charge was called on the play, which Embiid did not agree with. This led to him confronting the official past midcourt, 30 feet away from the original play, to argue his case.

He became animated from there, leading to his ejection with 2:59 left in the first half. The 76ers trailed the Spurs 37-35 when he left the game.
