Embiid tough on Pistons, Drummond
Joel Embiid revels in the chances to go against Pistons center Andre Drummond. And the 76ers’ star big man doesn’t stop going at Drummond when the game is over.
Embiid scored 32 of his 39 points in a dominating first half and had 17 rebounds, then let Drummond know about it afterward, leading the 76ers to a 109-99 victory Saturday.
Drummond and Embiid have butted heads throughout their careers, with Embiid recently saying he “owns real estate” in Drummond’s head after he was ejected in the Pistons’ 133-132 overtime victory Oct. 23.
“He’s a fun matchup,” Embiid said. “I feel like I dominate every game, especially against him.”
