VJ Edgecombe, a 20-year-old shooting guard, performed well in a 111-97 Game 2 win over the Boston Celtics, according to The Athletic. He scored 30 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in the game, marking a rare feat for a rookie that has never been done in the history of the NBA. Despite this, the 76ers will face a task without their star center, Joel Embiid, unless he recovers from an emergency appendectomy. Edgecombe's performance in Game 2 was particularly impressive, with his consistent jumper and defensive playmaking. He also provided a valuable asset for the team, as well as his defensive, rebounding and secondary playmaking skills. The win gives the Sixers hope that they can now compete in the series.
