* Embiid is still quite good at basketball (16 points on 4-5 shooting)
* Harris started the quarter with a couple makes from the perimeter, then started attacking closeouts. He has 14 on 6-10.
* Harrell continues to be the backup.
* Harden made all but 3 of his 4 free throws.
ICYMI, Joel Embiid is:
* Scoring the most points of his career.
* On the best efficiency of his career.
* While posting up the least in his career.
That last point will annoy some traditionalists, but we've never seen a big man score this much, this efficiently.

Embiid scored 91 points between Friday and Sunday, or more than PJ Tucker has scored all season.
He's the only 7 footer since 1982-83 to average 30+ points with a 60%+ TS%, which he's set to do in back-to-back seasons.

Everyone is impacted by the loss of Harden's playmaking, but Tucker more than most. He's playing much better defense than he was to start the season, though. Just need to find a way to get through these next few weeks.
