NBA NBA Twitter reacts to James Harden, Sixers blowing out Wizards at home
The Philadelphia 76ers kept their winning ways going on Sunday night when they blew out the Washington Wizards at home 112-93. It was a wire-to-wire victory for the Sixers and they led by as many as 25 as they have now won six of their last seven games.
Joel Embiid had another big night as he led Philadelphia with 34 points on 12-for-21 shooting and he was 10-for-12 from the free-throw line. The Wizards really had no clue and no answer on how they could really stop or slow down the big fella.
Along with another big Embiid game, James Harden had 18 points and 14 assists including a highlight triple in the fourth quarter, Tyrese Maxey had eight points, and Tobias Harris had 11. De’Anthony Melton had 10 points, six rebounds, and four assists and Dewayne Dedmon made his debut and had four points in garbage time.

James Harden had his 31st point-assist double double this season.
That is tied with Wilt Chamberlain and Maurice Cheeks for the most point-assist double doubles in a season in Sixers history

Phenomenal two-way game from Joel Embiid. He's up to 34 points through three quarters and his help defense has been outstanding all night. Four blocks and way more shots affected tonight.
