Joel Embiid was a great sport after the Philadelphia 76ers lost Game 7 of their Eastern Conference Semifinal series against the Boston Celtics.

In the handshake line, Embiid whispered something in Jayson Tatum’s ear, which made the latter smile. They then talked a little bit more before going their separate ways.

Here’s a look at the conversation:

This came after Tatum had a ridiculous performance with 51 points, 13 rebounds, and five assists. He single-handily won the Celtics this game in the third quarter.

NBA fans really liked this level of sportsmanship from Embiid.

I wanna know what he said ???? https://t.co/crLvXpk2K1

“I love Joel Embiid. He’s such a great player and a classy guy,” another tweet read.

Joel Embiid is classy. Respect.

This is the fifth time in the last six seasons that the 76ers have lost in the second round of the NBA Playoffs.

Embiid might have some different teammates next season since a failure of that magnitude isn’t acceptable.
