The center scored a career-high 59 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, dished out 8 assists, and made 7 blocks in the match. According to StatMuse, he is the first player in NBA history to have a game of 50 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, and 5 blocks.

The league officially started counting blocks during the 1973-74 season. It is possible that the legendary Wilt Chamberlain might have had numerous such games before.

Embiid's also the third player in the franchise's history to have a 55+ point game with Allen Iverson and Chamberlain having registered such performances before.

More than a third of Embiid's points came from the free throw line as the 76ers star made 20 shots out of 24 there. The player even joked after the game that he missed too many.

After starting the season 1-4, the 76ers have turned it around recently, capturing 3 wins in the last 4 matches. With a record of 7-7, the team currently sits in 7th place in the Eastern Conference.
