NBA Twitter Went Crazy When Seeing Rachel Nichols Party With Joel Embiid And James Harden
Last year, after ESPN’s Rachel Nichols was caught on a hot mic, saying that her colleague Maria Taylor got to anchor the NBA Finals coverage instead of her because the network was ‘feeling pressure’ about its ‘crappy longtime record on diversity’, it marked the end of her career at the network.
Additionally, there were more and more rumors about Nichols and the 2020 NBA Bubble coming to surface. The most frequent one was that Nichols and Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler shared more than just the occasional interview in the Bubble. The unsubstantiated rumor has it, that the two got together in Orlando.
Now, Nichols was seen in a club with Joel Embiid and James Harden, which cause NBA Twitter to go crazy.
