The Sixers competed well against the Suns on Sunday. Joel Embiid was stellar with 37 points, 15 rebounds, three assists, three steals and two blocks, but he didn’t have enough offensive help to beat the best team in the league. With a poor 2-of-11 shooting night from James Harden, a quiet second half from Tobias Harris after he excelled in the first, and Tyrese Maxey getting off to a slow start before heating up in the fourth quarter, the Suns were too strong at both ends of the floor, led by a red-hot Devin Booker scoring 35 points on 13-of-22 shooting.
