Some people had good days at work on Friday. One person got his head stomped on by a 280-pound MVP.
Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams was left with a bloody mouth and more in the fourth quarter of Game 3 against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday when his head found itself on the receiving end of Joel Embiid's foot.
The play in question had seen Williams and teammate Jaylen Brown collide while scrambling for the ball and land on the floor under a midair Embiid. Unfortunately, gravity took hold and Embiid didn't have many other options beyond his weight driving Williams' skull into the floor.
