Joel Embiid scored 53 points and grabbed 12 rebounds against Hornets, which is an excellent result and he has a very good overall record, averaging 38 points in the last 10 games. Against Utah, this season he also scored 59 points, Philadelphia won that game 105-98, and Joel scored more than half of all points. He said after the game with Hornets, that the ball itself found me, but it is clear that the players try to play with him if he has a good game.

This game was won by Joel Embiid alone, as he single-handedly gave his team, the Philadelphia 76ers, the victory. Watching the game at times, it felt like he was the only one on the court. In my opinion, he was the one who was really dictating the game. It seems to me that almost every time he was in the right place at the right time, I would agree with this statement. In addition, it is also very true that when his teammates saw that he was absolutely unstoppable, they also helped him by giving him more opportunities & giving him the ball more.

Last year there was a close MVP race between him Jokic and Giannis. One advantage Jokic has is that he remains consistent while Joel went down and got injured and so he didn't win the Award. But if he continues his performance like this and not be injured, I think he has a high chance to win this year no doubt.

He has a good supporting cast as well, lead by Harden and the Melton and Milton and Tobias Harris.

Gonna be a good Eastern showdown as who will be the team to beat with the Bucks (although they lost) and the Celtics as well.

Currently, Joel Embiid is listed on the 4th KIA MVP race behind Luka Doncic and Jayson Tatum is on the lead from 2nd to 1st. It will be an interesting race as long as the named ballers won't get any serious injury this season. Embiid is back again and looking forward to get the award that he haven't got last season because of the said injury that cost him that award.
