Philadelphia faces Indiana after Embiid's 44-point outing

Philadelphia visits the Indiana Pacers after Joel Embiid scored 44 points in the 76ers' 112-108 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers

APRIL 4, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Hoists 20 free throws in win Embiid had 44 points (12-26 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 17-20 FT), 17 rebounds, three assists, five blocks and one steal over 38 minutes during Sunday's 112-108 win over the Cavaliers.

Impact Embiid drew 11 fouls Sunday -- too much for Cleveland to overcome. Lacking Evan Mobley (ankle) and Jarrett Allen (finger), Cleveland crowdsourced an effort to slow Embiid. In the fourth quarter Embiid rolled his ankle, but he successfully played through it and appeared healthy. He was dealing with lingering ankle soreness coming into Sunday's contest, so it is a situation to monitor.
