Carmelo Anthony is used to hearing fans taunt him at times during his long NBA career, but this time was different.
Lakers’ 105-87 loss to the 76ersWith 7:01 remaining in the fourth quarter, Anthony confronted a fan standing behind the row of courtside seats near center court. The former Knicks star told reporters afterward that the fan referred to him as “boy”. Referees and players from both teams also intervened to prevent the incident from getting out of hand.

He also used similarly offensive language, according to Anthony.“Some things were said,” Anthony said. “Unacceptable. I’m cool with fans heckling, fans talking trash, cheering for their team, booing the other team, I’m all for that.
“I was just trying to calm the situation because they were just going back and forth, and I really wanted to just go home and finish the game,” Embiid told reporters. “So, yes, that’s what I wanted, to calm the situation down so we could play and move on.”
