NextImg:Joel Embiid backed up words when 76ers needed it most

Highlights of the Knicks’ 125-114 Game 3 loss the 76ers on Thursday, which narrowed their series lead to 2-1.

Joel Embiid backed up his boast that the Sixers “will win the series” with 50 points — including five made 3-pointers and 19 converted free throws — for a 125-114 Game 3 victory over the Knicks.

Donte DiVincenzo had a quiet night following his go-ahead 3-pointer late in Game 3, finishing with five points in 27 minutes with zero made treys in three attempts.

The Sixers’ bench didn’t contribute much in the first two games, but Cam Payne scored eight of his 11 points in the first half Thursday.

The Knicks won the first two games with Jalen Brunson not shooting well (29.1 percent), but they lost Game 3 despite his 39 points on 13-for-27 shooting from the floor and 13 assists.

“Which one? The one they called, or the one they didn’t call? Just want to make sure we have clarity on that.”
