Saquon Barkley recently experienced the anticipated reaction from fans as he attended a basketball game in Philadelphia, setting the stage for his upcoming games against his former team, the New York Giants. Sitting courtside at Wells Fargo Arena alongside his new teammate, A.J. Brown, Barkley was met with some boos from the crowd, indicating the lingering disappointment from his former fan base.

Reflecting on the negative reaction, Barkley took to X, expressing his surprise at the ongoing backlash: “It’s been two months… lol no way ya can still be this mad! Mf can’t even go to a basketball game.” This tweet captures his bemusement at the extent of the fans’ lingering animosity towards him.

Barkley’s decision to join the Philadelphia Eagles, a rival team of the Giants, naturally invited criticism and scorn. Despite having valid reasons for his move, including financial and football considerations, his choice to sign with a rival team was bound to evoke strong reactions from fans. The recent display of disapproval at the basketball game serves as a testament to the enduring emotions tied to his decision.

Former Giants star cheers for 76ers, angers Knicks fans

The timing of Barkley’s attendance at the game was noteworthy as it coincided with the NBA playoffs featuring his former city’s team, the New York Knicks, facing off against his new city’s squad, the Philadelphia 76ers. As a Pennsylvania native, Barkley came out in support of the 76ers, adding another layer of complexity to his public appearances.

While it is understandable for Barkley to question why he cannot enjoy his life after making a career decision and moving on, the reality is that his presence at a Philadelphia game instead of a New York event is likely to stir up mixed emotions among fans. The conflicting loyalties of Giants fans rooting for the Knicks may have contributed to the palpable tension surrounding Barkley’s public appearances.


The aftermath of Barkley’s attendance at the game raises questions about how he is processing the ongoing backlash. His tweet did not specify whether he primarily noticed the negative reactions online or during the game, leaving room for speculation about the extent of the public’s disapproval. Additionally, his presence at the game and subsequent social media activity may have sparked further discussions about his transition to a rival team and its impact on his relationship with fans.
