NBA Finals Replay
For the first time in his NBA career, Embiid failed to score a point in this one as he finished the game shooting 0-for-11 from the field and 0-for-3 from the charity stripe. Although Embiid grabbed a game-high 13 rebounds, he committed four turnovers and the Sixers were minus-nine in his 32 minutes on the floor. NBA Finals Replay As the buzzer sounded, Pascal Siakam punctuated the Raptors win with a booming dunk as time expired. Fitting, considering his efforts down the stretch in this one. Down one point with just over a minute remaining, Siakam drove the lane and finished through contact, to give Joel Embiid his fifth foul of the night. The 2019 Most Improved Player then calmly stepped to the line and sank the free throw to put his team up for good. "I don't know if you can count on (Embiid) going scoreless most nights but we will sure take it." With the win, the Raptors improve to 12-4 on the season. They're now 1.5 games ahead of the 76ers in the standings.
