Festus Ezeli car

Festus Ezeli is the latest Golden State Warriors rookie to become a victim of the team’s rookie hazing.

The rookie center from Vanderbilt tweeted Sunday to show that his teammates got him by removing the wheels from his car.

At least Ezeli had a good sense of humor about it. He later tweeted to ask, “Does anyone want to gimme a ride home?” And then he said that the team turned the prank into a scavenger hunt:

Funniest part was that they hid the tires around the building lol

Golden State is seriously lucky that Ezeli was cool with the whole thing. To show you how badly things can go when it comes to messing with someone’s car, I refer you to the Kenyon Martin story. But I guess it could have been worse — filling a teammate’s car with buttery popcorn is pretty cruel.

Below is another look at the car:
