Joel Embiid's flabbergasted face while getting posterized belongs in a museum
Hang this photo of Joel Embiid from Knicks vs. Sixers Game 3 in the Louvre.
What a rough night for Joel Embiid all around on Friday. Sure, the Philadelphia 76ers superstar returned from injury to play in Game 3 against the New York Knicks . But he only hit 41.
2 percent from the field including 0-for-4 in a loss to the Knicks that puts the Sixers on the brink in the seven-game series, with Philly now down 3-0. And there's more: Mitchell Robinson posterized him with a dunk, and Getty's Jesse D. Garrabrant captured a photo in which Embiid's face was hilarious.
