Sixers Bell Ringer: Joel Embiid’s 39 points not enough to snap losing streak

Joel Embiid- 8

James Harden- 4

Shake Milton- 4

Tyrese Maxey- 3

Paul Reed- 2

Tobias Harris- 1

Georges Niang- 1

An array of factors seemingly lined up for the Philadelphia 76ers to snap their two-game slide on Monday. They had two days off after Friday’s contest. All-Star point guard James Harden was returning following a 14-game absence. Their opponent was the 6-17 Houston Rockets. Instead, Philadelphia produced perhaps its worst performance of the season and fell, 132-123. Tobias Harris poured in seven triples and scored a season-high 27 points.
