Golden State Warriors’ Jordan Poole has 19-point fourth to lead Warriors to win over Sixers
SAN FRANCISCO — The Warriors have struggled all season keeping their fouls to a minimum. Of course, a foul magnet awaited them at Chase Center upon return from their most successful road trip of the season.
Joel Embiid, the MVP frontrunner, kept the 76ers in pace with the Warriors early with frequent trips to the free throw line. Embiid took 10 free throws by the end of the first half, nearing his league-leading 11.7 free throw average per game. Embiid finished with 22 free throw attempts, hitting 19 of them in a 46-point game.
Poole started feeling his hot hand early, making three of his first six 3-point attempts. The Warriors had a two-point lead heading into the second half. Poole brought the Warriors back to life in the fourth quarter, scoring seven straight points including a tough 3-pointer from way beyond the arc to put them down by two with more than eight minutes remaining. Poole started to challenge the Sixers defense at the rim and get to the line.
