After the game, Joel Embiid called out Cowherd.
The Sixers control their own destiny for home-court in the playoffs now.
Cowherd promised to wear a Sixers jersey on his show if Philadelphia won 40 games.
Looking everywhere in LA for Sixers jersey. Can't find one. So frustrating. Really wanted to pay off the bet. Well, maybe next time.
