76ers' Matisse Thybulle, Mike Scott embarrass each other with savage old photo battle

Share

Nothing says team building like a good, old fashioned embarrassing photo contest.

With the NBA still on pause, the Sixers' Mike Scott and Matisse Thybulle - like many current pro athletes - have regularly turned to Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok to keep themselves entertained while social distancing. 

Late Thursday night, things got interesting.

Scott started a back-and-forth with the rookie by launching an old mirror selfie from Thybulle's past into Twitter, with no context, like a weaponized Throwback Thursday:

He looks so young here! Judging by the haircut, the iPhone 4S, and the general quality of the picture, this is probably high school-era Thybulle. Maybe an old Facebook profile photo? Great find, Mike.

Thybulle responded on Friday morning on his Instagram, with an equally solid photo of Scott from many moons ago:

My goodness, Mike, that hair! It's everywhere! I'm 99 percent sure Scott has had short hair since the end of his time at Virginia, so this is either an early college photo or a high school photo.

Scott admitted on Friday morning that Thybulle had done a good job:

Meanwhile, as Thybulle was plotting his revenge, Sixers fans took to the internet overnight to find equally embarrassing photos of Scott.

They found some gems:

Just another reason to be glad Scott and Thybulle are both Sixers. We miss you guys.
