Joel Embiid tweeted another shot at Aron Baynes, deleted it
Joel Embiid just can’t stop poking Aron Baynes with his Twitter fingers.
During Wednesday’s Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Boston Celtics and the Cleveland Cavaliers, Cavs big man Larry Nance Jr had a near-tomahawk dunk on Baynes early in the fourth quarter. Nance missed it however and was curiously called for a charge on the play. Take a look:

In response, Embiid took an apparent shot at Baynes on Twitter over the play. Here was the Philadelphia 76ers star’s tweet, which he soon deleted.

This comes just days after Embiid took another thinly-veiled shot at Baynes over a similar play in Monday’s Game 4 of the conference finals. The two big men battled it out in the second round (with the Celtics defeating the Sixers in five games), and it is clear that Baynes is still living rent-free in Embiid’s head.
