Despite Joel Embiid’s 31 points, the Sixers’ winning streak ended at seven games Wednesday night with a 109-98 loss to the Hornets. NoahLevick of NBCSPhilly has the recap:
Gordon Hayward posted 30 points on 13-for-16 shooting for Charlotte.
Instead of subbing Embiid out, Rivers rode a hand that’s been especially hot over the last five weeks or so. It paid off as Embiid scored 12 points on six field-goal attempts in his opening stint with extraordinary variety. He handled the ball often, creating good looks for himself and his teammates, and converted a step-back three-pointer.
It would be interesting to see more lineups moving forward with Georges Niang or Tobias Harris at center against smaller, athletic opponents. Rivers went the opposite direction Wednesday, however, playing the supersized Drummond-Embiid frontcourt for about five and a half minutes in the fourth. Charlotte contained the Sixers’ offense well in the second period, playing a decent amount of zone defense. Though the Sixers weren’t clueless against the zone, they hurt themselves with sloppy giveaways and couldn’t create consistent openings with Embiid on the bench.
The 34-year-old Green stayed down on the floor after Miles Bridges blocked his driving layup attempt in the second quarter. He eventually rose and walked gingerly back to the locker room, where he had his right hip examined and was cleared to return, per a Sixers official.
