The Charlotte Hornets had lost three games in a row heading into their meeting with Philadelphia, most notably coming up short against the lowly Washington Wizards on Thursday night. To make matters worse, LaMelo Ball and Mark Williams were unable to suit up on Friday due to injury management.

A well-rested 76ers team that hadn't played since last beating the Hornets on Monday, blew the game wide open early.
