Did they rest their starters again?
i was closeHe ended the game with 40 points, he can do this so easily but watch next big game he will have 15 points
From ESPN:
Embiid's night was one for the history books, as he became the first player in the shot clock era to score more than half of his team's points and shoot 80% from the field, and also joined Wilt Chamberlain as the only players to record at least 50 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists while shooting 80% from the field.
And Embiid did it while getting plenty of attention thrown his way. According to ESPN Stats & Information's player tracking metrics, Embiid was double-teamed 13 times, and Philadelphia shot 9-for-11 and scored 23 points on those possessions. Meanwhile, Embiid was an absurd 10-for-13 on contested field goal attempts.
THIS MVP RACE IS OVER
