The Sixers just keep riding high. On Wednesday they picked up another impressive win, taking down the 106-103. The end of the fourth quarter wasn't pretty, but the Sixers played more excellent defense and had 27 points from Joel Embiid and 25 from Tyrese Maxey to lead the way offensively.
On Friday, the Sixers have their first game of the NBA’s new In-Season Tournament as part of East Group A (you can read more here if you need a reminder of how it all works). They’ll be on the road to take on the 2-7, 15th-place Pistons, now led by new head coach Monty Williams.
