NEW YORK–The Philadelphia 76ers paid a visit to the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday afternoon looking to continue to find success on the floor. They entered the contest at 9-3 and they were looking to continue to build off that success.

From the jump, it was all Sixers. They led by double digits in the first quarter and while the Nets were able to rally and take a brief lead, it was short-lived as the Sixers continued to storm back and answer every run the Nets had in them. Philadelphia led by as many as 27 and walked away with a 121-99 victory led by Joel Embiid with 32 points, 12 rebounds, and nine assists.

Tyrese Maxey added 25 and 10 assists while shooting 6-for-11 from deep, De’Anthony Melton shot 4-for-6 from deep and had 21 points and five rebounds, and Tobias Harris added 10 and five rebounds. Jaden Springer also added 10 points and five rebounds off the bench.
