Sixers Joel Embiid becomes the first player to register this unheard record in 2021-22 season

Joel Embiid has shown that “The process” hasn’t stopped and is still going on at a colossal rate. Embiid in the past 4 matches has scored more points than his minutes played on court, giving the 76ers the momentum they need to win games.

The 76ers are on an unbeaten run since the past 5 games where in they’ve defeated the Spurs, Clippers, Magic, Wizards and Heat, and in this process, Embiid has scored more points than minutes he has played in the past four games, precisely:

Even in the lack of Ben Simmons, who has been under constant scrutiny for his absence in the matches, the 76ers have performed magnanimously well, most of the credits of which, going to the man Embiid himself.

Joel Embiid’s Record Breaking Plays

While being the face of the 76ers, and a basketball icon through generations, Embiid has managed to put up unbelievable states. Back in December, Embiid joined Hall of Famer Allen Iverson to become one of the only to Sixers to score 7000 points in their first 300 games. Both, Iverson and Embiid reached this milestone in their 282nd game.

As previously mentioned, Embiid has scored more points than minutes played in the past 4 games, but what he as also done, is become one of the only two players to score 50 points in a record-breaking time of less than 27 minute. The only other player to hold this record along with Embiid is the Warriors’ Klay Thompson who scored 52 points in 26:33 minutes.

By doing this, Embiid has joined the list of the lowest minute 50-point games, being ahead of players like CJ McCollum, Damian Lillard, James Harde, Kobe Bryant, Stephen Curry and many more such legends.

No wonder “The Process” has evolved so very well that he has managed to make a place for himself in this exquisite list by putting up unbelievable numbers.

The Philadelphia 76ers this season

In the absence of Ben Simmons, the 76ers have won 27 matches and lost 19, standing 6th in the Eastern Conference, right behind the Cleveland Cavaliers. With the trade of Ben Simmons being expected before the February 10th trade deadline, Joel Embiid has become the face of the team, leading them from the front, while putting up great numbers for the team.

The 76ers have been unbeaten in the past 5 games and have had a 9-1 run in the past 10 matches. The team has gained proper momentum due to the performance of their players, and will expect them to perform in the same way to remain in contention in the Easter Conference.

Performance of “The Process” Joel Embiid this Season

Embiid recently said “I could be the greatest, or one of the greatest scorers in the league”, highlighting the confidence and the momentum the player has had this season. While putting up unbelievable stats in the past few matches this season, Embiid is averaging a career high 28.7 points, 10.7 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game. Embiid has performed exceptionally well and will expect to perform in the same way if he wishes to carry his team forward the way he has been doing it recently.

The absence of Ben Simmons doesn’t really seem to be affecting Embiid, and it is for the future to see, which way the trade goes and if Simmons will or will not play for the 76ers again. For now, Embiid needs to carry the form and keep strengthening “The Process”, while giving his team the momentum they need to remain in contention.
