Philadelphia played only 2 matches this week but mediocre performances by other All-Star centers cleared the way for Embiid, who was exceptional in the week with his box plus-minus and net rating standing out. The wins were also against quality opponents. After defeating the San Antonio Spurs, 76ers completely destroyed the Detroit Pistons. With the thin competition this week, the Process is the Center of our Team of the Week.

Other contenders for this position this week:

Dwight Howard (2-0, 17.5 ppg, 9 rpg on 63% shooting)

Kelly Olynyk (3-0, 15.7 ppg, 8.3 rpg on 58% shooting, 36% from threes)
