The Philadelphia 76ers had their home opener on Sunday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Reigning MVP Joel Embiid put on a show, finishing with 35 points, 15 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and six blocks.

This isn't the first time Embiid has used the "Suck it" taunt, and last time he did it, it cost him $25,000. Embiid told the Brooklyn Nets to "suck it" in a regular season game in January 2023, which caused him to be fined.
Embiid has been using the taunt for years and has called Triple H his favorite wrestler.
