Philadelphia 76ers fans know that on his best nights, the Turkish shooting guard can light it up from downtown for the Sixers.</p><p>He certainly showed that off in his national team’s latest exhibition game against a Slovenia team bannered by Luka Doncic and Goran Dragic. The Sixers guard poured in a game-high 33 points and was pulling off his best Stephen Curry impression with five threes all in emphatic fashion.</p><p>Korkmaz even sank a tough off-balance floater at regulation time expired to send the game to overtime:</p><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>The fact that Furkan Korkmaz is a relatively limited player the NBA just goes to show the level of talent in the league, where on the world stage he’s a premier scoring threat capable of dropping 30 and making clutch baskets. He did once score 65 points two-game span a few seasons back to lead the Sixers to back-to-back wins, but he’s never eclipsed that plateau otherwise.</p><p>His Slovenian rivals, however, <a href="https://www.eurohoops.net/en/national-teams/1377200/goran-dragic-steals-the-show-as-slovenia-beats-turkey-in-overtime/">were not to be denied</a> as Goran Dragic sank the go-ahead three-pointer in overtime to steal the win from the relentless Turkey side. Dragic finished with 28 points while Luka Doncic had 23 points and 10 rebounds on the night.</p><p>Joel Embiid had another MVP-level season last year, finishing with the second-best individual run for the 2021-22 campaign. All that’s lacking is a stronger supporting cast around him and James Harden. If Furkan Korkmaz can channel this side of his play more often, perhaps he can step in to the Seth Curry role and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nets-rumors-james-harden-supposed-role-in-the-kevin-durant-trade-saga-revealed/">become the deadeye they truly need.</a></p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Many will focus on Joel Embiid, who turned in another dominant performance, but others deserve applause as well. Among the standouts from this blowout was Furkan Korkmaz.</p><p>The month of December has not been kind to Korkmaz, to say the least. Heading into Sunday, he was in the midst of arguably the worst shooting slump of his young career. The 24-year-old was averaging merely 6.0 points and shooting 15.4% from three over his last nine games. His struggles got so bad Doc Rivers had no choice but to cut his minutes.</p><p>Shooters always go through hot and cold spells. It’s a given with that style of play. All a player needs is that one good game to break out of their funk, and Sunday might have been that for Korkmaz. In 14 minutes of action, he tallied 14 points on impressive 5-for-9 shooting from the floor.</p><p>It’s too soon to say that Korkmaz will slowly inch back to the player we’re accustomed to seeing, but Sunday was a step in the right direction. Following the win, multiple players stepped up to sing his praises after such a bad dry spell shooting-wise.</p><p>First was Tobias Harris, who touched on the lift Korkmaz’s bounce-back performance provided for the rest of the team.</p><blockquote>“Obviously, he’s a guy who’s been out for some time as well so for him to just come in and gain that momentum and that flow, see some shots fall, and be able to roll off that, that was big for us, big for him,” he said, per <a href="https://sixerswire.usatoday.com/2021/12/26/sixers-praise-furkan-korkmaz-for-busting-out-of-slump-vs-wizards/">Ky Carlin of SixersWire</a>.</blockquote><p>Later on, Joel Embiid chimed in with his thoughts. He loved the way not only Korkmaz played, but the team as a whole.</p><blockquote>“I’ve been talking to him. We needed that. We need him to be aggressive. We need him to make shots. Everybody, we need everybody. You look at tonight, the way everybody played, the ball moved, everybody played well together as a team, it started on defense. We need everybody as we saw tonight so hopefully, that continues,” he said, <a href="https://sixerswire.usatoday.com/2021/12/26/sixers-praise-furkan-korkmaz-for-busting-out-of-slump-vs-wizards/">according to Carlin</a>.</blockquote><p>The Sixers need Korkmaz to break out of his slump fast, for multiple reasons. Being so short-handed, they need all the production they can get. If he can carry the momentum from this game forward, it will greatly help the currently depleted Sixers’ second unit.</p><p>Outside shooting is another key factor in Korkmaz returning to form. Recently, the Sixers have <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sixers-3-point-shooting-becoming-glaring-weak-point-philly/">not been able to buy a basket</a> from beyond the arc. As one of their top three-point shooters in recent years, Korkmaz’s main objective is to help space the floor.</p><p>Korkmaz has had a rollercoaster ride of a season thus far, and after Sunday, his play looks to be trending in the right direction once again.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

However, Sixers teammate Furkan Korkmaz unintentionally prevented him from doing so. But O’Quinn revealed that his Kormaz has apologized and they’re all good.</p><p>O’Quinn stepped in for the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sixers-rumors-joel-embiid-injury-may-not-be-serious/">injured</a> Joel Embiid in the Sixers’ 130-117 loss to the Phoenix Suns. He had a good game: nine points, 10 rebounds, and 11 assists. He had a chance to record a triple-double with 45 seconds left. But Korkmaz, who literally had to make the easiest pass to him under the rim, wasn’t aware that he was about to reach the milestone. Good thing that O’Quinn wasn’t looking to pad his stats.</p><blockquote>“I don’t think Furk knew, I knew, but I didn’t want to look like I was trying to get it,” said O’Quinn, per <a href="https://sixerswire.usatoday.com/2020/08/11/furkan-korkmaz-apologized-to-kyle-oquinn-for-triple-double-block/">Ky Carlin of USA Today</a>. “I don’t want to look like one of those guys running in, miss a layup, just to get a rebound, and put it back so Furk was playing the game. I would much rather us play in the flow than force me the ball. He came to me after the game and he apologized in the most sincere way so I guess me and him are good.”</blockquote><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Kyle O'Quinn got his 10th rebound, giving him 9 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists with 45 seconds left, leaving him a point shy of his first career trip-dub. </p><p>On the VERY NEXT POSSESSION, Furkan Korkmaz dribbles into a 3 instead of making this pass. <a target="_blank" href="https://t.co/u189hpsIx3">pic.twitter.com/u189hpsIx3</a></p><p>— Derek Bodner (@DerekBodnerNBA) <a target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/DerekBodnerNBA/status/1293319765310820361?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 11, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>O’Quinn reiterated that the triple-double wouldn’t really mean anything since the Sixers were down big.
