We have to assume this stems from punching a guy in Boston, driving 108 MPH or trying to use a fake I.D. in a Philly club.
That said, Okafor is having a pretty stellar season, statistically, with averages of 17.2 points and 8.1 rebounds so far.
Good move by the team or overreacting to the actions of a 19-year-old kid?
