The Philadelphia 76ers suffered their second loss of the new season. Notably, fans were furious at the back-to-back defeats, and Joel Embiid became their target. The 76ers faced the Milwaukee Bucks in a tight game, but the Bucks came out on top, winning it 88-90, with Giannis Antetokounmpo and James Harden leading their teams in points.

During his 40-minute stretch on the court, Harden scored 31 points, 8 rebounds, and 9 assists. Antetokounmpo, on the other hand, scored 21 points, 13 rebounds, and 8 assists in 36 minutes on the floor. At some point, it felt like it was James Harden vs the Bucks, as other 76ers players arguably had poor performances, most notably Joel Embiid.

It what a tight game in the end, with the audience left on the edge of their seats during the game’s tense fourth quarter. However, Embiid failed to score during the second quarter while handing the Bucks three turnovers.

Today, Embiid was battling to score against Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez. Both of the Milwaukee Bucks giants managed to reject Embiid’s attempts. Legion Hoop posted a tweet and shared the second-half stats of Embiid. And the fans were brutal in expressing their opinions on the five-time All-Star.
