Despite scoring a game-high 50 points in a 125-114 victory on Thursday, Embiid found himself at the center of attention due to some antics.

Embiid grabbed Mitchell Robinson's leg as he attempted to score and, in a separate incident, his leg made contact with Robinson's groin area during a jump shot.

Additionally, Embiid was called for a foul after what looked like knee-to-groin contact with another Knicks center, Isaiah Hartenstein.

With the series standing at 2-1 in favor of the Knicks, all eyes now turn to Game 4, scheduled for Sunday in Philadelphia.
