Philadelphia 76ers 133-114 Brooklyn Nets
After months of not knowing his status, and then signing his contract extension with the team, Joel Embiid showed up and dominated the game in his limited minutes on the floor. He played just 15 minutes but put up 22 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists as the 76ers recorded their first win of the preseason. The franchise is not done though. They play their preseason finale against the Miami Heat on the 14th of October.
Despite Embiid's huge numbers, it was an all-round effort by the Sixers that led to the win. Dario Saric led the scoring charts with 26 points while rookie Ben Simmons did a little bit of everything - 9 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals. Philly's 2017 No. 1 overall pick Markelle Fultz didn't feature in this game.
On the other hand, for Brooklyn, their offseason acquisition of D'Angelo Russell is proving to be useful. The 21-year old point guard has put up efficient scoring numbers on three of the four preseason games so far. The Nets are done with their preseason and will now tip-off the regular season on the road against the Indiana Pacers.
