Joel Embiid powers Sixers over Bucks, 110-102 on a night when Tyrese Maxey leaves with a left foot injury
It’s hard to call Friday night’s tilt against the Milwaukee Bucks a barometer game for theThe Bucks came into the matchup a half-game behind the Boston Celtics atop the Eastern Conference standings. They also boasted one of the league’s top-five players in Giannis Antetokounmpo.But neither team was at full strength, and the Sixers lost Tyrese Maxey late in the second quarter to a left foot injury. So it’s hard to compare squads under those circumstances.
Georges Niang scored 17 points and made four of eight three-pointers off the bench for the Sixers, and Shake Milton added 15 points and six assists.Postgame fireworks Harrell ended up going to the other basket after a couple of minutes. Antetokounmpo was interrupted a second time when a ladder was placed in front of the rim. The two-time MVP responded by shoving the ladder out of the way.
“I feel like it’s very unprofessional. I would never take ball away from a professional athlete when he’s trying to do his job.”“Aye make sure you get the complete story,” Harrell tweeted. “I asked the man can he get off the court so I can workout they had to change the court over he ignore me so hey that’s what you get! Respect is respect! GOODNIGHT!”
Realizing there’s cameras all over the court, Antetokounmpo said the whole incident, where he describes people getting in his face and taking the ball, can be shown. “That’s how it has to be,” power forward P.J. Tucker said of getting a victory while undermanned. “Games you have to win to be able to be in position at the end of the season really when it counts. ... We have to keep fighting. We have guys down. We have to step up.”They were without starters James Harden and Tobias Harris because of injuries.
