This match is a battle between two fantastic players, Jayson Tatum and Joel Embiid, both of whom are among the leading scorers of the league. Embiid averages 33 points per game, which is the 2nd result in NBA, while Tatum is ranked 6th with 30.6 points per game. Teams are facing each other for a third time in the current season.
