Awful three-point shooting dooms Sixers in Milwaukee

MILWAUKEE — The 76ers had a bad combination Monday night.

They were without their NBA all-star center Joel Embiid and they struggled mightily in their three-point shooting. That contributed to a 107-95 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks at BMO Harris Bradley Center.

Embiid was ruled out of the game Monday morning, one day after being deemed “available” to play. It would have marked the first time he has played in both games of a back-to-back situation in his two-year career.

The Sixers (24-23) dropped to 2-8 in games without him this season.

This loss came on a night when they made a season-low two three-pointers in 26 attempts.
