NBA, Philadelphia tops Utah with 59 points from Joel Embiid
Another loss for Golden State, beaten by Sacramento
So many NBA regular season contests played. Great performance by Embiid, who put up an impressive 59 points in the game against Utah, won by Philadelphia 105-98. For the 76ers’ big man it is his career high in points in a single contest. Fontecchio is again left watching throughout the game.
Without James, it was Davis (37 points) who dragged the LA Lakers to success against Brooklyn (116-103, Durant’s 31 points not enough for the Nets). Curry scores 37 points but Golden State surrenders to Sacramento (122-115), collecting its eighth loss of the season (5-8 record for the Warriors). Denver shines as it rules Chicago (126-103) while OKC disposes of New York (145-135 the final).
