The Charlotte Hornets struggled to score and to stop Joel Embiid as they were blown out by the Philadelphia 76ers, 121-82.
Terry Rozier got the scoring started for the Hornets with a corner three. The birthday boy was super aggressive from the outset. He attempted nine shots in the first quarter alone and scored a team high 10 first quarter points. Both teams shot the ball well in an evenly played quarter. The Hornets predictably struggled with Joel Embiid, but they had a lead until Tyrese Maxey banked in a runner from near half court at the buzzer.
