Joel Embiid's 30-point triple-double leads 76ers to historic 138-94 victory over Lakers

Posted : 28 November 2023

Joel Embiid orchestrated a spectacular 30-point triple-double, leading the Philadelphia 76ers to a dominant 138-94 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. This marked LeBron James' most lopsided defeat in his illustrious career, with the 44-point loss now standing as the worst he has experienced since entering the NBA in 2003. The 76ers outperformed the Lakers in every aspect, including hitting 22 three-pointers compared to the Lakers' seven. The game saw Embiid clinch his sixth career triple-double, finishing with 30 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists.

 

The Lakers endured several miserable milestones during the game, including their worst-ever loss to the 76ers in the 290-game series history. LeBron James, who usually plays a crucial role in rebounding, didn't secure a single rebound in this game. The defeat marked the seventh consecutive win for the 76ers against the Lakers. The 76ers' dominance was evident as they outscored the Lakers 40-14 even when Embiid sat out the entire fourth quarter.

 

Despite the anticipated showdown between Joel Embiid and LeBron James, the Lakers couldn't overcome the 76ers' lead. Embiid's exceptional performance, combined with the 76ers' sharpshooting from beyond the arc, secured their victory. Tyrese Maxey contributed significantly with 31 points for the 76ers, while Anthony Davis managed 17 points and 11 rebounds for the Lakers. The Lakers struggled to defend against the 76ers' three-point shooting, allowing them to hit 13 three-pointers in the first half alone.

 

The 76ers' energy and competitive spirit were evident throughout the game, outmuscling the Lakers in every aspect of play. Head coach Nick Nurse expressed surprise at the game's unfolding, highlighting how the early success in three-point shooting energized the team. The victory marked the 76ers' second consecutive win after a brief two-game losing streak, and they may soon welcome back Kelly Oubre Jr., who participated in shootaround and could join the team on their upcoming road trip after recovering from an injury sustained in a hit-and-run accident.
