After missing two games with a mild concussion and an orbital fracture suffered in the first round against the Toronto Raptors, Joel Embiid returned to the court Friday for the Philadelphia 76ers’ Game 3 matchup against the Miami Heat.

Embiid helped lead the Sixers to a 99-79 win at Wells Fargo Center to help his team avoid a 3-0 second-round hole. Afterward, he condemned Raptors fans for chanting “f–k Embiid” during the opening round of the playoffs and celebrating his injuries.
