A win is technically a win.
The Sixers improved to 7-1 on the season and 1-0 in in-season tournament group play when they took down the Detroit Pistons 114-106 Friday night.
Tyrese Maxey overcame a rough start to finish with 29 points, five rebounds, four steals, 10 assists and crucially no turnovers. Joel Embiid didn’t have the most efficient night either, but led all scorers with 33 points and hauled down 16 rebounds.
Tobias Harris was rather efficient however, putting up 24 points shooting 8-of-15 from the field.
Here are some thoughts at the buzzer.
