Joel Embiid made a go-ahead 3-pointer with 41.4 seconds left and the Philadelphia 76ers rallied from a 19-point deficit to beat Milwaukee 133-130 on Saturday, snapping the Bucks' 16-game winning streak.

Milwaukee had the longest winning streak by any NBA team since the Phoenix Suns had 18 straight victories early last season.

The 76ers trailed 125-121 before James Harden, who scored a game-high 38 points, hit a 3-pointer with 1:21 left. After Giannis Antetokounmpo missed a shot from around the basket, Embiid sank a 3-pointer that gave Philadelphia its first lead of the second half.
