Joel Embiid is a phenomenon like the old days. He scores 40 points and gives the victory over New Orleans in Philadelphia, without Paul George, suspended by the NBA for 25 games for violating the anti-doping protocol. The stop will cost him over 11 million, deducted from the salary of the 35-year-old, who justified himself by claiming that he had taken inappropriate medicines to treat problems relating to his mental health. There were six NBA games scheduled: Amen Thompson drags Houston into the Texan derby with Dallas, Charlotte defeats Victor Wembanyama’s Spurs, Simone Fontecchio scores 8 points, but Miami loses at home to Chicago. Then there is a trade worth mentioning: Cleveland sends De’Andre Hunter to Sacramento in exchange for Dennis Schröder and Keon Ellis, a third team is involved in the transfer market, Chicago, which receives Dario Saric and two future second round draft picks from the Kings.
