Joel Embiid looks like he's making one last push for MVP.
Derrick White led the Celtics with 26 points and seven rebounds in the loss. Tatum finished with 19 points, and Malcolm Brogdon added 18 off the bench.
Embiid is now the first center to record at least three 50-point games in a single season since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar did so during the 1971-72 season, too. The only other 76ers player to record more was Wilt Chamberlain.
