The Sixers already have enough injury concerns with Joel Embiid, and then tragedy struck early in Game 3 against the Hawks.
With Green out, the Sixers needed someone to step up and fill his place.
This outburst led the charge for what ended up being a much-needed bounce-back performance from the Sixers’ bench unit.
After the game, Korkmaz touched on stepping up when needed in Game 3.
I hope we’re going to get everybody healthy, but if he’s out, I’m definitely ready to step up,” said Korkmaz.
This second unit has done a tremendous job keeping themselves ready at all times, no matter how many minutes they’re getting.
