In yet another contest where they faced a huge deficit, the Philadelphia 76ers, true to their form so far this season, mounted a furious comeback in the fourth quarter to come out with a tight, two-point win over the visiting Clippers. That improves their record to 8-5, which is good for a tie for fifth place in the Eastern Conference.
The biggest narrative for the 76ers in this game was the fact that Paul George finally made his long-awaited season debut, but another storyline which fans were closely monitoring was the return of Jared McCain, who had just finished his brief stint with the Delaware Blue Coats in the G-League.
