NBA legend Paul Pierce made headlines on Saturday for his wild and unfiltered post on Instagram.
In it, he can be seen with several women, looking high and/or drunk. What the man does at his home is his personal business, but it’s a bold move to post that on Instagram, especially while being employed by ESPN.
Needless to say, it generated a ton of reactions online, including from Wizards star Bradley Beal.
Forgot to hit that close friends 🥴😂

Lakers star Kyle Kuzma took it even a step further, calling Pierce a “sicko.”

Admittedly, it’s a bizarre decision by Pierce to publicize his private life like that, especially considering he’s a married family man. Since the post, he’s gotten a considerable amount of backlash.
Worse still, ESPN is getting called out for Paul’s behavior, which has led the media empire to bring the hammer down on the former Celtics star.

As for where Pierce and ESPN go from here, that much remains to be seen. We’ll just have to look out for him on “The Jump.”
