Even for an NBA All-Star Game, Sunday night’s display was a rough watch. Normally, guys will turn on the switch and make things competitive, but that never really happened. It was basically a dunk and three-point contest in a game setting.
But it was a solid night in Salt Lake City for the Sixers’ lone All-Star Joel Embiid.
We weren’t even sure Embiid was going to participate in Sunday’s game — some would argue that maybe he shouldn’t have while dealing with a sore left foot that has made him questionable for every game over the last month or so.
