When PHI takes the minutes restriction off of Joel Embiid this dude is going to be something else.
22 pts (4-9FG), 1-3 from deep, 13-18 FT, 2 assists, 2 stls, 5 blocks in only 28 min...
They just beat MIL on the road as well.
This young man is becoming a Game Changer and I'm happy for him. It's hard not to like him.
They're only 7.5 games out of that last playoff spot, and considering who's in front of them....
DET - 4-6 last 10
MIL - 5-5 last 10.
NY - 2-8 (yikes)
ORL - 3-7 their last 10 games.
PHI could very well be a darkhorse. My realistic mind tells me that before they go pushing for playoffs (and more minutes on Embiid's body) they'll continue with the min restrictions and will end up missing that last spot by maybe 4-5 games. Nice turnaround for them, though.
