Joel Embiid led the 76ers with 30 points (10-of-17 FGs, 9-of-10 FTs), nine rebounds, four assists and one three-pointer in a 113-104 win over the Pacers on Monday.
For the second time this season, Embiid was able to score 30 points in consecutive games. It took him some time to get on track, and he still isn’t as productive as he used to be, but he’s certainly still able to score at an elite level. He’ll continue to light up the scoreboard when he’s available, and his minutes have gone up, which is encouraging for his health. However, that doesn’t mean he’s going to play back-to-backs. Except him to be ruled out against the Suns on Tuesday.
