Joel Embiid's Dominant Double-Double Leads 76ers to Decisive Win Over Nets

Philadelphia routed a shorthanded Brooklyn team 123-94, with Embiid's 28-point, 12-rebound performance shining in just 29 minutes of play.

  • Joel Embiid recorded 28 points, 12 rebounds, and 6 assists in only three quarters, propelling the 76ers to a commanding victory over the Nets.
  • The 76ers improved to 14-19 on the season, while the struggling Nets fell to 13-22 after the blowout loss in Brooklyn.
  • Brooklyn played without Ben Simmons, who was sidelined due to left calf soreness, and lost D'Angelo Russell early in the game to a right shin contusion.
  • Caleb Martin contributed 17 first-half points for Philadelphia, capitalizing on opportunities created by Embiid's dominance and defensive double teams.
  • Philadelphia's next game will be against the Phoenix Suns on Monday at home, as they look to build momentum following this decisive win.
