The Philadelphia 76ers came out on top of a Sunday evening meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies, by a score 103-95. The Sixers lead for a large portion of the game, and appeared to be the superior team for much of the night. However, it took until the closing seconds for fans to be able to feel confident in impending victory. Whenever the Sixers seemed to be putting the game out of reach, the Grizz would claw their way back.
At one point, with about 50 seconds remaining, the Sixers new Mr. Clutch (Jimmy Butler) hit a step back jumper to grow the Sixers lead to eight.
