Joel Embiid Swats Three Shots and Posts Double-Double
7 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid posted a double-double in Friday’s win over the Hornets. He had 23 points on 50 percent shooting while grabbing 14 rebounds. While this stat line is impressive, it’s nothing new from the Cameroonian big man. In addition to his usual scoring dominance, it was more of the same in the block department, as he swatted three shots. There's one thing to note, though, as he’s been struggling with his free-throw shot recently and that was on display in this 6-for-11 effort. This is but a small blemish, as he’s now playing back-to-backs and looking dominant as ever just in time for the fantasy playoffs.
