The Sixers beat the Celtics Tuesday night, and Joel Embiid scored six points, grabbed four boards, and blocked two shots in 13 minutes.
It is a testament to Embiid’s immediate impact on the Sixers, and basketball in general, that the Celtics double-teamed him at one point during the second quarter.
Said Embiid, after the game: “I was like, ‘That’s my first game. Second quarter. Y’all really going to double-team, first game, second quarter?’”
