Joel Embiid breaks Wilt Chamberlain's 76ers record with 70 points, making history

He broke Wilt Chamberlain's 1967 76ers record of 68 points by making 24 of 41 field goals, including 1 of 2 three-pointers, and 21 of 23 free throws. Joel Embiid breaks Wilt Chamberlain's 76ers record with 70 points, making history. When Chamberlain was a player for the Philadelphia Warriors, he also broke the NBA record with 100 points. The six-time All-Star and current MVP, Joel Embiid, continued his run of scoring at least thirty points in twenty-one straight games, which helped the 76ers win six straight games. Against rookie Victor Wembanyama, who scored 33 points, Embiid was further inspired by his daily goal.
