Late in the fourth quarter of Game 3 between the Hawks and 76ers, Embiid appeared to trip on himself while attacking the basket. However, a foul was called on John Collins despite not touching the Philadelphia 76ers center at all. Trae Young was not happy with the call from Zach Zarba and even got into his face to tell him to open his eyes.
