PHILADELPHIA -- Philadelphia 76ers star big man Joel Embiid has dealt with a lot of criticism during his time in the league. He has had to battle through a ton of injuries and has had to work his tail off in order to be there for his team on a nightly basis.

The Eastern Conference doesn’t have an outright powerhouse. The Detroit Pistons and Celtics carry the best records.

Tyrese Maxey broke Allen Iverson's 76ers franchise record for 3-pointers, finishing with five 3s and 28 points in Philadelphia's 124-117 victory over the Miami Heat.
