Embiid drops 50, supporting cast shows up as Sixers beat Knicks to make series 2-1

Well, they’re on the board.

The Sixers knocked off the New York Knicks 125-114 in Game 3 to get their first win of the series.

They did so behind a 50-point performance from Joel Embiid, a playoff career-high. He did so shooting 13-of-19 from the floor while grabbing eight rebounds and four assists.

Tyrese Maxey had 25 points thanks to a big third quarter while also going for four rebounds and seven assists. Kelly Oubre Jr. had 15 points shooting 6-of-8 from the field.

Here are some thoughts from the Center.

First Quarter

  • This time it was the Knicks who started off the game hot offensively, making four of their first six shots of the game.
