Okafor pulled over for doing 108 MPH

[Hey Yo]

"76ers rookie center Jahlil Okafor was pulled over in Philadelphia around three weeks ago for driving 108 mph, according to Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Okafor was traveling on the Ben Franklin Bridge when he was stopped. Driving over 40 mph is considered reckless.

The news comes days after he was involved in a fight in the streets of Boston on Wednesday night, that was caught on video. Police said they would not investigate the incident unless someone came forward to say they were the victim of a crime.

The 19-year-old also previously exchanged words with a heckler while out with teammates at a Philadelphia club in Oct., according to the Inquirer. As Okafor left, the critic pointed a gun to Okafor's head outside the club. No police report was filed but federal officers may have witnessed the incident.

Each incident has ties to venues that serve alcohol, which he is not legally allowed to consume until he is 21.

Okafor was the third overall pick in this year’s NBA draft. He is averaging 18 points and 17.9 rebounds per game this season.

This is what happens s when you punch someone in the face all the stuff that's been hidden comes to light

[IGOTGAME]

sounds extremely immature. sad to hear

[smoovegittar]

The kid seems upset about something.

[Spaulding]

ugh what an idiot

[Meticode]

This is what can happen if you give a 19 year old fame an fortune. It's unfortunate that he's playing in the NBA at 19 at a high level for his age (even though the Sixers are historically struggling right now), but he's throwing it away.

It's either he's really ***** dumb or he just doesn't want to wait for philly to pump and dump him. This is the 3rd negative thing he's done that's landed him in the newspaper less than a month into the season. They hid this and the gun incident really good but once they caught the fight on camera there's nothing you can do to protect him, it brought negative attention his way which led to the other two incidents being brought to light

[Hit_Em]

im doing a hunnit on the highway
so if you do the speed limit
get the **** out of my way

[Harison]

He is immature kid upset to play for terrible franchise, what else people expected to happen?

[fiddy]

The kid seems upset about something.
Cuz he was snubbed by the Lakers

[Snow]

Okafor the L! :lol

[R.I.P.]

Driving off a bridge at 108 MPH, while pulling a gun on yourself. Probably how the whole Philly fanbase feels.

[Bosnian Sajo]

While it is dangerous, all yall would be lying if you said you've never gone over 100mph "just to see what it's like".

Pretty much. Almost all 19 year olds are idiots already, but you add some fame and money? This is what you get.

alcohol has bee involved in the Okafor incidents as well, what do you know about that Smoke?

[STATUTORY]

this is what happens when Lakers break your psyche by snubbing you on draft day

Mitch absolutely murked this boy's career, Okafor rehab watch

[Styles p]

i hate the media in this town, always trying to run good players out of town. :facepalm

[AirTupac]

Pathetic. Imagine Lakers chose him and he was caught doing these things? OH LAWD

[oh the horror]

Problem with this is even if it's just a 19 year old being a 19 year old the media has now clamped their grubby hooks into him. They're going to be just waiting for this guy to give them headlines now.

[MP.Trey]

For all that money he brags about, he's sure going to have to pay a lot of fines and lawyer fees.

[R.I.P.]

While it is dangerous, all yall would be lying if you said you've never gone over 100mph "just to see what it's like".

Certainly not, when it lands me in Philly in one direction, and New Jersey in the other. I

[FireDavidKahn]

:roll:

2 incidents of punching people
1 incident of going 108 MPH

No it isn't. This is what happens when you give a dumbass a fortune. So many more NBA players that get drafted don't do this sort of stuff.

[dhsilv]

Just doing down hill today going 80 in a 70, the normal 10 over I found myself following going 99ish. 108 is just him not driving a corolla xrs like I do and instead having a badass sports car.


That is BEYOND a nothing!

[dhsilv]

Nope.

[Town's Town]

The guy couldn't even complete 1 full month of regular season in the NBA before doing 3 boneheaded things. :facepalm

[FireDavidKahn]

wow that is wrong with you? That sounds serious depressing! Do you have some kinda conic issues where you can't have fun?
Going 108 in a 40 is the only way you can think of having fun?:oldlol:

[dhsilv]

Going 108 in a 40 is the only way you can think of having fun?:oldlol:

No but if you've never been 100 anywhere illegally you're a seriously depressing person. Honestly you might as well off yourself, sorry I'm being so nice to you. I do it all the time. I want you do die much worse but I just can't say negative things.

Sure. Probably everyone has gone over 100, I would be surprised if anyone has not tried it..........with that being said, going 108 in a 40 zone, and in a location like a bridge, is something that only people on drugs or that are insane do, or people with a suicide/death wish do, or people that are trying to evade the po po's do......

[Hit_Em]

fukker could have killed innocent people...........imagine your own mother or father getting killed by this idiot.......:mad: :banghead:
He also could of killed a pedophile or a serial killer so....:applause:
