At the start of the game, Embiid was bludgeoning the Kings\u2019 bigs around the rim and getting them in foul trouble early. Sure, he was getting a friendly whistle, but when you are that huge and dominant, you get those calls most nights.<\/p>\n<p id=\"gHleJX\">Aside from Embiid, the Sixers\u2019 other two healthy best players, James Harden and Tobias Harris, had productive nights as well, scoring in the 20s. <\/p>\n<p id=\"rcFXPX\">On the Sacramento side, De\u2019Aaron Fox struggled in his first game back from injury, scoring just 13 points, and making only one of seven three-point attempts. For the Kings to compete against the NBA\u2019s elite teams, they simply need a better version of Fox to show up, and that guy wasn\u2019t there on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p id=\"wFYevL\">Despite battling some Embiid-related foul trouble, Domantas Sabonis <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sactownroyalty.com\/2022\/12\/6\/23467299\/domantas-sabonis-is-connecting-everything-for-the-sacramento-kings-nba-2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">continued to be Sacramento\u2019s most effective player<\/a>, scoring 22 points and making 8 of his 10 shots. Despite getting a rough whistle, Sabonis continued to be the relentless force he has been all season for Sacramento.<\/p>\n<aside id=\"3Apzv1\">\n<\/aside>\n<p id=\"kau1ql\">As a team, Sacramento made just 10 of its 42 three-pointers, while the Sixers made 16 of 35, which ultimately ended up being the game\u2019s final margin. The Kings are reliant on those threes to fall, especially when they play the NBA\u2019s elite teams. When they don\u2019t, it\u2019s going to be a long night.<\/p>\n<p id=\"wzkUbB\">It\u2019s a long season, and all teams get blown out at some point, so Tuesday night shouldn\u2019t be too alarming, but what\u2019s ultimately going to decide this team\u2019s fate is how they respond and if they can stop losses from piling up. And Sacramento won\u2019t have time to dwell too much on this performance, as the team will face off with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.raptorshq.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Toronto Raptors<\/a> north of the border on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sactownroyalty.com\/2022\/12\/13\/23508373\/kings-vs-sixers-final-score-joel-embiid-domantas-sabonis-stats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Sacramento Kings got outmanned, outclassed and outmuscled for 48 minutes in Tuesday\u2019s 123-103 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.
