Earlier this week when Ben Simmons was going off against the Jazz, I joked about how crazy it be if Simmons reached the 50-point plateau before Joel Embiid, whose previous career-high was 49 points. Well, Joel must have heard footsteps, as the big man finally bit into a 50-burger Friday night against Chicago.
