Before the start of tonight’s game, it was reported that Joel Embiid was questionable to play. He started. He was spectacular. JoJo had 17 points in the first quarter. The Sixers tied a franchise record with 17 threes made. Nik Stauskas dunked down the throat of everyone who has ever shit-talked him.
Embiid finished the game with 26 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 blocks in 20 minutes, shooting 3/5 from long-range. Nik Stauskas had 21 while shooting 8/9 from the floor and 5/6 from three. Sergio Rodriguez finished with 8 points, 11 assists, and 8 rebounds. The Sixers, as a team, had their most assists in a 48 minute game since 2011. The Sixers have won their last 3 home games.
