Joel Embiid Caps Off Another Big Night With Late Game-Winner
2 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid had another outstanding game Friday against Portland and finished it off by making the game-winning shot in the dying seconds. The MVP candidate nailed a tough turnaround jumper to complete a 21-point comeback and make it a 120-119 victory for Philadelphia. Embiid had a game-high 39 points on 13-for-20 shooting from the field, adding seven rebounds and four assists to his tally with two steals and three blocks. The league's leading scorer has now hit at least 30 points in five consecutive games and also has three blocks in back-to-back outings. Embiid is a beast all over the court, and Washington will be his next victim on Sunday.
