Sixers soar as Embiid’s triple-double overwhelms the Chicago Bulls

After missing four games due to ankle issues, Joel Embiid made a triumphant return to the court this Tuesday, showcasing the exceptional level that defines him. The Philadelphia 76ers’ player led his team to a convincing victory over the Chicago Bulls with a score of 110-97.

Embiid left his mark with an impressive triple-double, accumulating 31 points (10 of 20 from the field, 9 of 12 from the free-throw line), 15 rebounds, and 10 assists. The current regular-season MVP has maintained an impressive streak, reaching 14 consecutive games with at least 30 points and 10 rebounds.

Tyrese Maxey (21 points) and Tobias Harris (20 points and 8 rebounds) provided solid support to the center in a dominant performance by the Sixers. The team shook the Bulls with an overwhelming 43-18 lead in the first quarter, heading into halftime with a 31-point advantage (73-42), effectively managing the lead and resting their starters in the final quarter.

Currently, the Sixers are in the third position in the Eastern Conference with a record of 23-10, trailing only the Boston Celtics (26-7) and the Milwaukee Bucks (24-9).

DeMar DeRozan (16 points) and Andre Drummond (11 points and 17 rebounds) stood out in an unfortunate performance by the Bulls (15-20), who had beaten the Sixers just three days earlier but today struggled with three-point shooting, going 7 for 37.

Two fans killed in gate collapse outside Chile’s Estadio Monumental

Two people lost their lives near the Estadio Monumental in Santiago, Chile, following a chaotic incident that occurred before the Copa Libertadores match between Colo Colo and Brazil’s Fortaleza on April 10. According to the Public Prosecutor’s Office, the victims were crushed after a fence on the stadium perimeter collapsed, though authorities are investigating whether a police armored vehicle may have played a role.

It was a black Thursday at Chile’s Estadio Monumental. Two local fans died outside the stadium after a yet-unclarified incident caused a metal gate to fall on them, leading to fatal asphyxiation.

Local media reports indicate that a group of fans attempted to force their way into the stadium before kickoff. In response, local police allegedly deployed armored vehicles to block the breach.

Preliminary reports cited by local newspapers and news agencies like EFE identify the victims as two young individuals—one 18 years old and the other just 13.

Neymar Returns to Santos Training After Month-Long Injury Layoff

Neymar returned to full training on Tuesday with the Santos squad after spending a month recovering from a left thigh injury, the Brazilian club reported.

The number 10 joined warm-up activities with the team and later took part in a ball control and passing drill. According to the sports outlet Ge, he “did not show any discomfort from the injury” during the 30-minute session that was open to the press.

The Brazilian star had spent the past month undergoing physiotherapy, recovery work, and muscle strengthening due to the injury that had kept him out of Santos matches and even from the Brazilian national team. He had initially been called up, but was later withdrawn from the squad ahead of the World Cup qualifying matches against Colombia and Argentina.

Santos will continue daily training sessions this week ahead of their upcoming match against Fluminense on Sunday in the Brazilian Championship.
