PHILADELPHIA — Pascal Siakam’s pull-up three-pointer bounced off the rim, and P.J. Tucker chest-bumped teammate Tobias Harris under the basket.
That misfire — combined with a go-ahead three-pointer by Harris — secured the 76ers’ 104-101 overtime victory over the Toronto Raptors on Monday night at the Wells Fargo Center to remain perfect on their longest homestand of the season.
Harris’ long ball gave the Sixers a 104-101 lead with about two minutes to play in the extra period — and held until the final buzzer. Siakam’s final miss came after his free throw and scooping layup with 5.1 seconds remaining in regulation, before Joel Embiid’s missed jumper at the buzzer sent the game to overtime knotted at 99.
