PHILADELPHIA — The 76ers were down two stars on Monday — and it didn’t show against the Miami Heat.
The undermanned squad pulled off its biggest win of the season, beating the Eastern Conference’s first-place Heat, 113-106, at the Wells Fargo Center.
Joel Embiid and James Harden both rested on the tail end of the back-to-back. The thought was the move would leave Tobias Harris and Tyrese Maxey with little help.
