Joel Embiid wasn't the only one throwing shade at the Phoenix Suns on Thursday evening.
The Philadelphia 76ers' official Twitter account got in on the action after the Suns tossed some shade in their direction.
It all started with a tweet while Mikal Bridges was still a member of the 76ers' squad. @Sixers posted some highlights of Bridges from his Villanova days. Harmless enough.
Looking forward to it. Thanks for the first round pick.

Then Bridges got traded to the Suns for Zhaire Smith and an unprotected first round pick in 2021. It appears as if the original highlights tweet was deleted but the @Suns had receipts.
That's when the @Suns tossed a jab.
Those were some nice highlights @sixers...
We'll follow up with new ones next season 😉 pic.twitter.com/YyNPszFI0h— Phoenix Suns (@Suns) June 22, 2018

Who you got in the battle of the hoops nerds behind the team Twitter accounts?
Just remember: don't ever take sides with anyone against the family again. Ever.
