Philadelphia 76ers prevailed in Game 3 of the semifinal series vs. the Atlanta Hawks as Doc Rivers’ team took a 127-111 win to reclaim the home court advantage.
The Hawks could not stop Joel Embiid, who went off for 27 points after a relatively quiet first half. The Sixers superstar combined for 7-of-14 shooting, nine rebounds, eight assists and three blocks.
Tobias Harris was once again tremendous with 22 points, eight rebounds and five assists. Ben Simmons followed him with 18 (11 of them in the 3rd quarter) points and seven assists.
For the Hawks, Trae Young’s 28 points and eight assists were not enough to secure a win in their home ground in Atlanta, as they are preparing to face the Sixers again on Monday.
