Embiid Limited, Bench Drought Doom Sixers as Knicks Take 3-0 Lead

Joel Embiid returned in Game 3 for the Sixers but was limited by ankle/hip issues as Philadelphia fell 108-94 to the Knicks, sinking to a 3-0 series deficit. The bench produced zero points through three quarters and was outscored 29-11 by New York’s reserves, highlighting deeper depth issues. Tyrese Maxey has been overwhelmed by the Knicks’ length and heavy minutes in the series, leaving Philadelphia to rely on role players to spark a comeback that appears unlikely after a tough, fatigue-filled night.

Joel Embiid returned from his longest absence since November as the Sixers rolled to a 135-114 road win over the Indiana Pacers, with Tyrese Maxey delivering another superstar performance and flirting with a triple-double.

The win, part of a 2-1 road trip, featured solid bench input from Adem Bona and VJ Edgecombe and a rotation tweak that saw Trendon Watford return.
