Sixers to take all the three-pointers and make every single one of them. Why hadn’t they been doing this the whole time
The Sixers knocked off the L.A. Lakers 138-94 Monday thanks to the whole team catching fire from deep. They finished the night 22 of 46 (48%) from deep.
Joel Embiid, who once again was able to take the fourth quarter off, had his first triple-double of the season with 30 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists. Tyrese Maxey led the three-point onslaught, shooting 5-of-12 from deep and putting up 31 points along with eight assists and no turnovers.
Throughout the first month of the season, the Sixers have gotten production from multiple different players of the second unit. However, there was a pair of unlikely heroes on Monday night. 
Patrick Beverley made his presence known against the Lakers. Along with his hard-nosed defense, he connected on four threes en route to scoring 12 points. 
Embiid posted 30 points, 11 assists and 11 rebounds in a 138-94 victory against the Lakers at Wells Fargo Center. He was able to watch the whole fourth quarter from the Sixers' bench.
Tyrese Maxey had 31 points and eight assists.
The 10-8 Lakers were led by LeBron James (18 points) and Anthony Davis (17 points, 11 rebounds).
Kelly Oubre Jr. (fractured rib), Danuel House Jr. (left quad contusion) and Jaden Springer (illness) were out for the Sixers.
It’s understandable why the Lakers would be Embiid’s favorite team. Bryant is so important to the history of the game not only for who he was as a player, but as a person as well. He was the epitome of greatness and an example of what happens when a player puts the work in on an everyday basis.
Embiid was on another level in this one. He knows it and he made it look really easy against a pretty good Lakers team defensively.
“Just seeing what the defense was giving me,” Embiid added. “I mean, in the post, they just double on every single possession so I just made the right play and the two-man game between Tyrese and myself and a couple of me bringing the ball up in transition with them loading up just taking whatever is available.”
