Sun Feb 12 202308:07Joel Embiid Toys With Brooklyn
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid maneuvered his way to a 37-point, 13-rebound double-double in Saturday's 101-98 victory over Brooklyn. The new-look Nets gave the Sixers a hard time, but Philadelphia was able to pull off the win in the end when Embiid and James Harden combined for 12 of the final 14 points of the game. Embiid had one make from downtown and shot 12-for-18 overall from the field with a 12-for-13 effort at the foul line. His 37-minute shift included two assists and two steals. That's now eight double-doubles in nine games for Embiid and he's scored at least 30 points six times during the run. He's in beast mode despite carrying a sore foot and Embiid should continue to dominate as long as he's in the line.

However, considering he played 38 minutes on Friday night in the win over the Knicks, he may sit this one out. Nevertheless, if Embiid doesn't see the floor versus Brooklyn, Montrezl Harrell should take his spot in the lineup. Harrell has averaged 13.7 points and 7.0 rebounds in seven starts this season, although Paul Reed could receive more work and be more productive.
