Joel Embiid scored 38 points and 12 rebounds, De’Anthony Melton added 33 and the Philadelphia 76ers recovered after blowing a nine-point lead in the final 30 seconds of regulation to beat the Los Angeles Lakers 133-122 in overtime on Friday night.
“We will take the win,” 76ers coach Doc Rivers said, via ESPN. “Usually when you give up a lead like that, to gather yourself and play well in overtime is rare.”
