Joel Embiid Struggles On His Way To 28th Double-Double
5 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid posted his 28th double-double of the season on Thursday, but things came really hard for him in a 112-101 loss to the Bucks, as he shot just 6-for-26 from the field and 4-for-7 at the line. Half of his makes were from downtown, and he finished with 19 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, and one block. Embiid has been fairly quiet since the turn of the year, and he even posted a nine percent shooting night recently. The Sixers have a good matchup on Friday against the pacy Grizzlies, but there's always a risk with Embiid that he'll sit out one game of a back-to-back set.
