In basketball, some nights transcend the ordinary, etching themselves into the annals of sporting history. Last night was one such chapter, written by none other than the Philadelphia 76ers towering force, Joel Embiid.
In a dazzling display of skill, resilience, and sheer brilliance, Embiid left an indelible mark on the court by dropping a jaw-dropping 70 points.
Embiid broke Wilt Chamberlain's franchise record of 68 points in a single game and became just the ninth NBA player to score 70 points in a game.
And once our friends at BreakingT saw his performance, they got to work. Check out their latest shirt below.
