The Philadelphia 76ers defeated the host Milwaukee Bucks, 113 - 104, at BMO Harris Bradley Center on Monday, In a battle between two young and talented teams, Philadelphia were able to prevail with a huge road victory. The key run for the Sixers was a 16 - 3 spurt in the middle of the fourth quarter that put distance between them and the Bucks. There were 12 ties and 11 lead changes in total, as this game was close throughout. Rebounding was the biggest factor for the Sixers, as they won that battle, 51 - 38. Free-throw shooting really killed the Bucks too, as they went 15 - of - 22, while the Sixers went 29 - of - 36 from the charity stripe. The Sixers (13 - 26) have been a different team with Joel Embiid in the fold and he was a huge factor yet again here. Embiid tallied 22 points, 12 rebounds, two steals and five blocks, with 18 of those points coming in the second half. Sergio Rodriguez got the start for T.J. McConnell (wrist), as he accrued 10 points, seven rebounds and six assists. Dario Saric was huge off the bench, providing 17 points, nine rebounds and four assists. Chasson Randle, Jahlil Okafor, Robert Covington and Gerald Henderson all scored between 10 and 11 points as well. On deck for Philly is a home matchup against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday.

With that said, he scored just two points in the second half, going 1 - of - 8 from the field before fouling out with three minutes left.
