NBA Twitter reacts to Sixers big comeback road win over Hawks

The Philadelphia 76ers needed a win on Friday in the worst way as they were able to rally from a 10-point deficit in the fourth and knock off the Atlanta Hawks 98-96. They received big performances out of Joel Embiid, Seth Curry, and the rest of the team in order to get a quality win.

Embiid had 28 points and 11 rebounds and he knocked down the go-ahead bucket late in the game while Curry added 18 points. The Sixers also received 13 points from Georges Niang in a start ad even Furkan Korkmaz busted out of his slump a bit with nine points off the bench.

Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari had a good look from 3-point range to win it for Atlanta, but it rimmed off and the Sixers were able to walk out of State Farm Arena with a win. Philadelphia is now 12-11 and they have two more games on this trip with the Charlotte Hornets.

Here’s what NBA fans and analysts were saying about Friday’s game:
