PHILADELPHIA — A year ago Wednesday, the 76ers used that night’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers as a barometer to see where they stood.
Things were much different in Wednesday night’s meeting, as both teams were battling injuries and looking to get into a groove.
Fortunately for the Sixers, Joel Embiid was healthy and Tobias Harris was able to play. Embiid finished with 26 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists and Harris added 23 points to lead the Sixers to 105-87 victory at the Wells Fargo Center. This win came after Embiid was named an Eastern Conference All-Star starter for the fifth consecutive season.
