BOSTON — A video of Jaylen Brown accusing Joel Embiid of “flopping” is circulating again after Brown was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers on July 1, 2026.
The clip, shared widely on social media shortly after news of the deal broke, shows the All-Star guard criticizing Embiid for exaggerating contact to draw fouls during a previous matchup. Fans quickly re-posted the remarks, noting the irony that Brown will now share the court with the Sixers’ franchise center.
Philadelphia acquired Brown in a multi-player trade announced earlier Monday, bringing the 27-year-old scorer to the Wells Fargo Center as the team looks to strengthen its backcourt alongside Embiid. Details of the transaction were not immediately disclosed.
Neither Brown nor Embiid has publicly commented on the resurfaced video since the trade became official.
