The Philadelphia 76ers played a solid first quarter of basketball as the team held a 31-24 lead heading into the second, while shooting a perfect 13-13 from the free throw line. The team had no turnovers in the quarter, something that has been a vital to some of the team’s early success. Joel Embiid and Nerlens Noel got on the court together for a few minutes for the first time this season. Embiid and Jahlil Okafor continued to start together, but Joel continued to see more time in the post than Jahlil.
RECAP: Phoenix Suns 123, Philadelphia 76ers 116
