Despite normally beginning the season with a few sluggish weeks spent getting into shape, Embiid is firing on all cylinders right out the gate.
In just three quarters, he scored 35 points on 12-22 FG, 2-4 3PT, and 9-12 FT. He also grabbed 15 rebounds, made 7 assists, and had a monstrous 8 stocks (6 blocks, 2 steals).
The stats are impressive, and his passing has notably improved, but what truly stood out was the effort he put into running the floor in transition.
