Joel Embiid

You don’t strong-arm your way into the MVP conversation all season without being able to shoulder a load offensively. Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid gets swarmed by a trio of Atlanta Hawks defenders in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals, then splits through a pair of opponents to float a well-placed lob-pass to teammate Ben Simmons. Embid finished with 27 points, nine rebounds and eight assists in the June 11, 2021 win.
