The Raptors actually haven't lost a game without the Villanova legend since Nov. 16, 2019 and are 5-0 when he sits this season. Another former Philadelphia college basketball star, St. Joseph’s product DeAndre’ Bembry, has started the last two Raptors games, victories over Milwaukee and Minnesota. Embiid wants to stay steady Before COVID-19 affected the daily rhythm of life in the NBA, Joel Embiid routinely chatted at his locker with Philadelphia basketball icon and Sixers executive advisor Sonny Hill. When asked Friday night after scoring a career-high 50 points and grabbing 17 rebounds whether he ever amazes himself, Embiid thought back to one nugget of wisdom from those discussions.
Aron Baynes and Chris Boucher should be Embiid’s main two frontcourt foes in Tampa Bay. He’ll look to capitalize on advantages in agility over Baynes and size over Boucher, one of the NBA’s most improved players this year. Expect Toronto to double team Embiid as much as possible. A contrast in styles The Sixers are second this season in mid-range shooting frequency and 29th in three-point frequency, per Cleaning the Glass.

The Raptors essentially have the opposite shot profile, as they’re 28th in mid-range frequency and fourth in three-point frequency. Since the Sixers have several very good mid-range shooters, with Embiid the best of the bunch, their low three-point volume hasn’t cost them too many games. Still, Sunday’s matchup against Toronto stands out as one in which the Sixers’ opponent could have a massive edge from beyond the arc. Fred VanVleet, who had a 50-point game of his own this season (54 points on 23 field goal attempts against the Magic on Feb. 2), certainly won’t mind firing away. He’s averaged 20.
“No, ” he said. “One thing the great Sonny Hill always told me — we used to talk all the time after games and before games; with COVID, that’s not possible — he used to always tell me, ‘Can’t get too high, can’t get too low. ’ Sometimes I have big games. It just feels like the past 15 or 20 games, it’s been all big games and all big numbers. But, if that’s what’s needed from me, then I’m going to do it.... I play to win, so whatever it takes.
