The Philadelphia 76ers began their NBA postseason in the play-in tournament and without Joel Embiid as he recovered from an appendectomy. After they beat the Orlando Magic in the 7/8 Play-In game, they weren’t expected to have much of a chance against Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics.
But in the decisive Game 7 on Saturday night, Embiid was available for Philadelphia and Tatum wasn’t for Boston. Embiid made all the difference, scoring 34 points while grabbing 12 rebounds and dishing out six assists in the Sixers 109-100 win to eliminate the Celtics on their own court. This Sixers squad also made franchise history, becoming the first 76ers team to rally from a 3-1 series deficit.
Which brings us to today’s quiz. Saturday night was Embiid’s 23rd-career 30-point game in the NBA Playoffs. How many of the active players to score 30+ points 10 or more times in the NBA postseason can you name in five minutes?
Good luck!
