The Philadelphia 76ers are a very talented team that has a lot of interesting characters on the roster. One of them, of course, is Joel Embiid who is not afraid to make jokes with anybody on social media or on the floor and then there’s Matisse Thybulle and others.
However, for veteran Kyle O’Quinn, neither of them are the funniest teammate he’s ever been around.
O’Quinn took over the official NBA account on Saturday to answer some questions from fans and he was asked who his funniest teammate was and he answered with Michael Beasley during his day with the New York Knicks.
Michael Beasley. Just pure comedy, speaks his mind, but always in a professional, respectful, outrageous way.

To be completely honest, Embiid sounds like the type of guy who always speaks his mind. Maybe not in a “respectful” way, per se, but he would never be accused of keeping things to himself.
As far as Thybulle is concerned, O’Quinn loves the fact that both he and the rookie are four-year college guys and he can appreciate the contagious smile from him.
Life is good. I think me and him, you know I always credit us being four-year players in college. We kind of connect on that. I think a smile is just contagious to everybody, no matter what you’re going through. If somebody smiles, it rubs off a little bit.

The NBA right now is in a state of suspension as everybody self-quarantines themselves to be protected from COVID-19. So, there’s not much to do but to really chill out and wait for this all to be over. So, good for O’Quinn to take the time and answer some fan questions. [lawrence-related id=28427,28424,28407]
