“Joel Embiid has entered the records book again?! Man has been unstoppable”: NBA Twitter blows up as the Sixers MVP joins Chamberlain and Iverson as the 3rd players to record 6-straight 30-point games

Joel Embiid puts up a heroic 31-point, 12-rebounds, and 7-assists near triple-double in Philly’s 119-100 win over the San Antonio Spurs.

Playing the 6^th campaign of his career, Joel Embiid has been absolutely unstoppable this 2021-2022 season. After averaging 23 points and 10.4 rebounds during the first two months of this season, JoJo erupted in the month of December putting up 29.2 points, 11.2 rebounds, and 3.9 assists per game winning the Eastern Conference Player of the Month honors.

After putting up a 31/5/4 stat line against Orlando on Wednesday night, the Cameroonian big man exploded for yet another huge night stuffing the stat sheet with 31 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, and a block in the Sixers’ 19-point blowout win over SAS.

With this victory, Philly is now on an impressive 6-game winning streak. And the 7-footer has been a huge reason behind the Sixers’ success during this 10-day period. With his Friday night’s performance, Joel has now put up his 6^th straight 30-point game joining legends Wilt Chamberlain and Allen Iverson as only the 3^rd player in franchise history to do so.
