[BelmontShore]

Embiid ruled out Wed vs Hawks in ATL.

He has 8 games left he can miss and still be eligible for regular season awards. He's gonna wind up cutting it close.

[Gennosuke]

Not much defense by either team in the 1st half. Sixers were particularly bad at protecting the paint. In his limited minutes, Springer did a pretty good on Trae though.

[Gennosuke]

Tobi misses the easy putback after Maxey's missed layup, but luckily gets fouled after another missed attempt.

[Gennosuke]

Maxey with the power drive and dunk to give the Sixers a one pt lead late.

Than knocks down a clutch three.

[Gennosuke]

Not sure why Nurse has Morris in there on defense instead of Reed.

[Gennosuke]

Maxey fouls Trae with 12 secs left and a one pt Sixers lead, but Trae misses the 1st FT before draining the second.

Sixers unable to convert on their last possession when Maxey gets stripped of the ball. Nurse wanted a foul call.

Game going to OT.

[Gennosuke]

Maxey fouls out with 1:44 left in OT and Sixers up by 3.

[Gennosuke]

Tobi with a chance to up the Sixers lead to 4, misfires on a jumper in the paint.

Hawks get two free throws on the other end, then a bad turnover by Morris leads to a 3ball for the Hawks.
