The Philadelphia 76ers were able to win their fifth straight game when they knocked off the Toronto Raptors 104-101 in overtime. They did blow a 14-point lead, the second time they blew a double-digit lead on this homestand, but the important part is they were able to come out on top so that is all that matters, at the end of the day.
Joel Embiid led Philadelphia with another big scoring night as he had 28 points and he was 14-for-15 from the foul line. He didn’t have the most efficient night as he shot 6-for-16 from the floor, but he was terrific on the defensive end as well in order to guide the Sixers to the win.
Tobias Harris also had a huge night as he had 21 points and drilled five triples on seven attempts. James Harden had 14 points, eight assists, and seven rebounds, and Danuel House Jr. had nine off the bench.
