Antetokounmpo closed Tuesday's 118-116 victory over Philadelphia with 40 points (16-24 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-10 FT), 14 rebounds, six assists, three blocks and one steal across 37 minutes.
Antetokounmpo missed two of the previous four games due to discomfort in his knee and was listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's showdown with Joel Embiid, but the two-time MVP showed no signs of the issue as he notched his eighth 40-point double-double of the campaign. He also blocked at least three shots for a third straight appearance, including a game-clinching swat on Embiid in the final seconds.
