The Sixers showed a lot of fight in their last contest. They improved on their recent third-quarter woes and competed until the end in a 122-115 overtime loss, but still fell to a strong Rockets team despite Tyrese Maxey’s 39-point outburst. It leaves Philadelphia at 3-14 and still stuck at 14th place in the Eastern Conference.
Next, as they look to turn things around after two straight losses and two days of rest, they’re on the road against the 9-12 Pistons.
The Pistons come into this game having gone 5-5 over their last 10 games.
