| 0:00.0 | Welcome to locked on NBA on a Tuesday everybody I'm West Goldberg from the mercury news and host of locked on heat David R. Mill and coming up the Wizards stay alive in their first round series against the 76ers, the Jazz Hold On against the Grizzlies, and can |
| 0:15.2 | the Lakers beat the sons without Anthony Davis? |

| 0:24.8 | locker room, changing the way we talk sports. |
| 0:27.0 | You are locked on NBA, |
| 0:31.0 | your daily NBA podcast. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network, your team every day. |
| 0:37.0 | Bradley Beals scored 27 points and Russell Westbrook put up a triple double to lead the Wizards to a 1-22-14 win over the 76thers to stave off elimination |
| 0:47.1 | and win their first game of the series. The big story, however, might end up being Joel and Bede, |

| 1:32.4 | so I think a lot of that probably due to the fact that Embeed was in there to challenge either of those two players. |
| 1:38.0 | So I don't know how Philadelphia is going to be able to respond. |
| 1:42.0 | And it's such a weird injury too because we saw him take a tumble there and it looked like at first he was reaching for his tailbone area and something obviously you're familiar with having seen Steph Curry suffer the similar injury |
| 1:54.4 | earlier in the season but Embed seemed like he hurt himself in the back and then all of |
