Joel Embiid went flying into the stands on Wednesday night in New York as he chased down a loose ball. He took out an MSG Network statistician, but managed to avoid actress Regina King, who was sitting court side.

The statistician appeared to be okay after getting drop kicked by Embiid. King also was okay after the close encounter and thanked God and Embiid’s athletic ability for helping to avoid a crisis.
