Joel Embiid Almost Has A 50-Point Triple-Double Friday
2 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid did MVP things in Friday's matchup against Golden State, going for 46 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, two steals and one block. He shot 13-for-23 from the field and 19-for-22 at the foul line, but despite Embiid's monster effort, the Sixers ended up dropping the game 120-112. Embiid had exited the previous game with a calf problem, so there was obviously uncertainty surrounding his health, but the big man proved that he is perfectly fine. Philadelphia has another game scheduled for Saturday against Phoenix, and Embiid should crush it again if he doesn't get rested.
