The Philadelphia 76ers were able to come out Wednesday with a 131-123 win overtime at the Utah Jazz thanks to Joel Embiid’s heroics throughout it. The big man had 40 points and 19 rebounds and punctured a 3-point clutch late to force overtime.
In overtime, jazz star Donovan Mitchell picked up two technical fouls and was sent off. At that point, Embiid and the Sixers were able to pull off with the win in a classic snapshot of the game.
Embiid then posted the video of his reaction to Mitchell picking up the technicians on Twitter and the two exchanged some playful barbarities.
This was an impressive win for the Sixers as they finish the first half calendar with a high note and will enter the All-Star break with a high note. Maybe Embiid and Mitchell will see each other for the third time this season along the way.
