Tuesday night's bombshell report from The Ringer implying that Sixers president of basketball operations Bryan Colangelo could be behind five Twitter accounts that disclosed non-public information, critiqued other front offices and criticized Sixers players, set the internet ablaze. It also sent Colangelo into damage control and forced the Sixers to launch an internal investigation.
After the report surfaced, Joel Embiid reacted and trolled before ultimately saying he didn't believe it. NBA players, executives and even Gabrielle Union, who was mentioned in The Ringer report, offered their own reactions to the wild story.
Let's begin with Union because she is part of this story. One of the alleged Colangelo burner accounts, Eric jr (@AlVic40117560), tweeted, “I sat NEXT to you and [Dwyane Wade] at Beijing Olympics and saw you both being rude nasty to little kid fan," according to The Ringer.
Early Wednesday morning, Union addressed the situation.
Some NBA executives chimed in — Daryl Morey of the Rockets (buddy and former boss of Sam Hinkie), Mark Cuban of the Mavericks and Danny Ainge of the Celtics.
