Justin Edwards a bright spot as Hospital Sixers put up a fight in loss to mighty Thunder

How about the fight those guys showed?

Down eight players, the Sixers fell 118-102 to the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference, the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Not only did Joel Embiid miss his fifth straight game with a foot sprain, Tyrese Maxey (hand) and Paul George (groin) were also part of the eight Sixers unable to suit up for the first leg of this back-to-back.

Justin Edwards once again made the most of his opportunity, leading the Sixers with 25 points off the bench, a new career high. He shot 9-of-16 from the floor and 4-of-9 from behind the three-point arc.
