Philadelphia 76er Jahlil Okafor got into an altercation last night following the team’s lost to the Boston Celtics.  Okafor punched a guy in the face hard, sending him to the ground outside of a Boston bar.

Jahlil and some friends went out on the town and ended up in an altercation in front of Storyville Boston nightclub.

19-year-old Okafor was screaming at the other man, “We got money you broke ass n**ga.”

A scuffle ensues — people tried to hold Okafor back — but then he escapes and swings wildly at another man, connecting and sending him flying to the ground.

In the melee, Okafor tumbles to the ground and a man in a green jacket tries to punch the 6’11” superstar in the back of the head.

According to TMZ Sports, everyone got up and fled the scene and no arrests were made.

The altercation reportedly began because one of the men in the other group yelled at Jahlil, “The 76ers suck.”

TMZ spoke with a rep for Jahlil who says Okafor says he was being heckled from the moment he left the club and felt threatened because people swarmed him on the street.

He says he was with a teammate — who he wouldn’t name — and says someone got physical with the teammate so Jahlil did what he felt he needed to do to protect himself and his friend.

They immediately left after the incident.
