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).

Super Bowl shatters viewership records with 123.4 million tuning in for Chiefs’ victory

The Super Bowl last Sunday, where the Kansas City Chiefs emerged victorious with a 25-22 win over the San Francisco 49ers and featured Taylor Swift as a star spectator, achieved a record-breaking audience of 123.4 million viewers, setting a new benchmark for television broadcasts in U.S. history.

This spectacle surpassed the previous record held by last year’s Super Bowl, in which the Chiefs also clinched the title, this time against the Philadelphia Eagles, gathering 115.1 million viewers.

The 2024 Super Bowl ranks just behind the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969, which had an estimated viewership of between 125 and 150 million people in the U.S. However, the comparison is somewhat imprecise since the moon landing was broadcast across various networks, whereas the 2024 Super Bowl was exclusively aired on CBS and its affiliated channels and platforms.

Data from Nielsen Fast National and Adobe Analytics, released by the NFL in a statement on Monday, showed that 120 million people watched the game on CBS.

The remaining viewers tuned in through Paramount+, Nickelodeon, Univision, CBS Sports, and NFL+. Notably, the 2.2 million viewers on Univision set a new record for a Super Bowl broadcast on a Spanish-speaking network.
