Wizards 31, Sixers 25 at the end of the first. Embiid’s hot start (13 points) gave Philly the early lead, but not much happening in the way of offense around him. Washington made 11 of 17 shots in the frame. – 6:40 PM

That Furkan Korkmaz 3-pointer late in the first snapped a 2-for-25 stretch from long range.
He’s been in a slump for about seven weeks at this point. – 6:40 PM

That was one of Washington’s better offensive quarters of the season. The Wizards scored 31 points on 11-of-17 shooting from the field on six assists and went 8 for 11 from the free-throw line Montrezl Harrell had a team-high 11 points. Washington leads Philly 31-25. – 6:40 PM

With Beal and Neto out (protocols), the Wizards had a backcourt of Dinwiddie and Kispert earlier in the first quarter. Now, it’s Holiday alongside Avdija and Bertans. – 6:36 PM

A few sequences ago, Deni Avdija drove against Joel Embiid and, using his body as a shield against Embiid, scored on a tough layup. The basket is a sign of Avdija’s growing confidence and decisiveness on the offensive end. It’s an accomplishment for any player to score on Embiid. – 6:25 PM

Smooth start for Embiid so far. He’s got 10p with 7:16 left in the first, 4-4 fg, and Harrell is in because Gafford picked up two quick fouls – 6:20 PM

Sixers leading 14-8 at the first timeout. Terrific start for Embiid, with a slick spinning finish, a 3-pointer and an and-1. Sixers are 6-of-8 from the floor. – 6:17 PM

Joel Embiid has 8 points (layup, 3, and-1) in the first 2 minutes and Daniel Gafford picks up his second foul. Might be a long night for Washington as Montrezl Harrell has to check in early. – 6:15 PM

Wes Unseld Jr.: “I don’t think it’s going to affect us at that point with a player’s ability to get out on the floor.” – 4:43 PM
