Report: Previous heckler pointed gun at Okafor

The street fight involving Philadelphia 76ers rookie Jahlil Okafor that took place early Thursday was not his first altercation with hecklers, according to a report by The Philadelphia Inquirer.

A heckler pointed a gun at Okafor's head following a verbal exchange in October at a Philadelphia club, the Inquirer reported, citing five sources who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

There is no report of the incident and Okafor declined to address it, according to the report. However, a source told the newspaper that federal officers witnessed the encounter.
