The last time Joel Embiid played a game in New York, the Philadelphia 76ers superstar declared his love. “New York is my favorite city in the world,” Embiid said on April 30 after his Sixers beat the Knicks at Madison Square Garden in Game 5 of their first-round playoff series.

Joel Embiid totaled 28 points and 12 rebounds in three quarters as the Philadelphia 76ers overcame an extremely early 11-point deficit and rolled to a 123-94 victory over the short-handed Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night in New York.

This Sixers jumped out to an early lead against the Nets and never looked back. They'd go on to finish their road trip on a high note, winning by a final score of 123-94. For most of the season, Guerschon Yabusele has been a key contributor for the supporting cast.
