Kansas basketball alum and NBA all-star Joel Embiid had a monster game in the Philidelphia 76ers’ first game back since the NBA’s hiatus.
Kansas basketball star Joel Embiid wasn’t playing around in the 76ers’ return to the NBA. The former Jayhawk dropped a phenomenal 41 points, 21 rebounds, and three blocks; however, this wasn’t enough to get the win. Philadelphia fell to the Indiana Pacers in a 127-121 loss.
Judging by the numbers he put up, it certainly doesn’t look like Embiid was at fault for the loss.
