The Philadelphia 76ers love to make games as dramatic as possible. However, the Sixers have now won seven of their last eight.
After a first-quarter video tribute to former Sixer icon, TJ McConnell, Wells Fargo Center was sent in a seesaw of a game. In a matchup of 16 lead changes and 14 ties, despite the Sixers leading by as many as 15 early, the Sixers edged out the Pacers 119-116. On top of it all, they were without starter Josh Richardson. The Sixers stayed undefeated at Wells Fargo Center and moved to 9-0 at home.
