During the game between the Sacramento Kings and Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night, their starting centers were seen having a lot of fun competing with one another.
DeMarcus Cousins and Joel Embiid were seen sharing a few laughs together, including an exchange of friendly slaps on their behinds.
After the game, Cousins continued his playful banter on the 22-year-old Kansas product during the postgame interview by giving good words for him and even saying that he has a chance to become the best center in the NBA, but under one condition.

Cousins got the better of Embiid on the night as he scored a game-high 30 points, including a clutch three-pointer that gave his team the lead for good, and also added seven rebounds, five assists, three steals and two blocks.
Fans will get another chance to watch the two go up against each other once again when their teams square-off on January 30 when the Kings visit the 76ers at Wells Fargo Center.
