The history night of Kemba Walker was overshadow but the combination of Joel Embiid and the Aussie Ben Simmons and the clutch man Jimmy Butler. The game was neck and neck at 119 a piece in overtime with Jimmy Butler hitting the step back three with 0.3 seconds left on the clock to seal the deal against the Charlotte Hornets. The combination of the three along with good minutes of J.J Reddick as usual was enough for the 76ers to get over the line and overcome the dominance displayed by the Charlotte point-guard Kemba Walker.

Kemba Walker had a historical night dropping a massive 60 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists adding to the many impressive scoring nights the 28 year old superstar has had but this is by far the most dominant. To me Kemba Walker is one of the most underrated point guards in the league and has just never had the pieces around him to see what he could actually do with a loaded roster. Unfortunately, Walker couldn't get the win due to the massive clutch play from Jimmy Butler that ended the Hornets hopes of stealing the victory. Joel Embiid had another massive night scoring 33 points, 11 rebounds, and 3 assists helping the 76ers clinch the victory and adding to the many impressive games the big man has delivered over the course of this season. The Australian Ben Simmons came up huge with 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 9 assists nearly clinching a triple-double and demonstrating his dominance on both ends of the year and showing his true potential of being a 6'11 point-guard. Jimmy Butler had a quiet game except his clutch three pointer scoring a total of 15 points, 3 rebounds, and 4 assists integrating himself nicely into the Philadelphia squad and showing the potential that the team can produce later on in the season.

The Philadelphia 76ers have won their last 3 out of 4 games and hopefully can continue this impressive streak when next facing the Phoenix Suns which should show to be a heavy weight show down. The Charlotte Hornets next face the Boston Celtics which should be a hard opponent for the Hornets to overcome but hopefully it can be an competitive contest.
