Golden State Warriors rookie Festus Ezeli isn’t the first victim of hazing in the NBA or even on his team this season, Kent Bazemore has that distinction.
The Warriors have an inordinate amount of rookies on the team this season with four, and Ezeli received his official rite of passage to the league when his teammates removed the tires from his car. Ezeli seemed to take it all in stride which is probably the best approach.

Warriors center Andrew Bogut and forward David Lee, didn’t admit to the hazing but had their fun.
The official @fezzyfel reaction to his car being “modified”!(Vid Quality is average) #rookies telly.com/F3QHJT

I think Ezeli got off easy, at least they destroy his interior with popcorn.
