DEAR GOD. JOEL HANS EMBIID IS A BONA FIDE SUPERSTAR.
THE STATS:
Joel Embiid scored 46 points on 19 shots, had 15 rebounds, 7 assists, 7 blocked shots, only 2 turnovers, and was a +19 on the night.
I mean. He took 19 shots! Nineteen!! Since the NBA started tracking blocked shots, Embiid is the only player ever to put up a line like that. With 7 minutes left, when he had “only” scored 36 points, the only two other players to put up a statline like his were Hakeem Olajuwon and Anthony Davis.
