The Sixers finished off the Washington Wizards in a gentleman’s sweep, taking care of business at home to close the series in just five games. This series has certainly held its ups and downs, respectively. We’ve seen the Sixers flat out dominate the Wizards through the first three games with the team fully healthy. We found a new low however, as Joel Embiid went down in Game 4 with an apparent knee injury after a hard fall, which has subsequently been ruled a partially torn meniscus.
Thus far in round one, the starters and main guys deserve an immense amount of credit as they haven’t played down to the competition for the majority of this series.
