In the season opener for not only the Philadelphia 76ers but the league as a whole, the Sixers and Celtics traded blows early and entered halftime knotted at 63 points apiece. Unfortunately for those Philadelphians thinking their sports teams were now invincible, Boston opened up a double-digit lead in the third quarter, and with Boston hitting one jumper after another, the Sixers never really threatened to completely close the gap, eventually falling 126-117. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown led the charge for the Celtics, each dropping 35 points, and shooting a combined 15-of-21 from the field in the second half.
