Joel Embiid had himself a career night tonight as the 76ers defeated the Brooklyn Nets. Embiid went for a career high 33 points on the night. He went 12/17 from the floor including two three-pointers on the night.
More impressive than any of his stats though, might have very well been one play that he converted a lay-up even after crossing himself up and falling to the floor. Here is the play:

Now, I don't think we can be as bold as to say that the 76ers designed this play and that it was planned for Embiid to fall to the floor to get loose of Luis Scola, but we can definitely say that it was a fun to play to watch.
