Joel Embiid drops wildly-efficient 52 points in last MVP push to lead 76ers past Celtics

Joel Embiid looks like he’s making one last push for MVP.

The Philadelphia 76ers star went off on Tuesday night to lead them to a 103-101 win over the Boston Celtics at the Wells Fargo Center. Embiid dropped a very, very efficient 52 points in the win while shooting 20-of-25 from the field.

Embiid hit the 50-point mark late in the fourth quarter after throwing down a relatively easy dunk, which put the 76ers up by six.

FIFTY (5ufe0fu20e30ufe0fu20e3) FOR @JoelEmbiid.
