The Philadelphia 76ers finally got on the board in the 2022-23 season when they knocked off the visiting Indiana Pacers, 120-106, on Monday night. Following an 0-3 start, they needed a win desperately.
A big reason they earned one was the play of James Harden. The Beard stepped up his play again. He just missed a triple-double with 29 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds. He knocked down five 3s on 10 attempts. He shot an efficient 10-for-18 from the floor as he continues to show off the hard work he put in over the summer to prepare for the season.
After the win, NBA Twitter reacted to Harden and the Sixers getting it done over a young Pacers team.
