It’s time for the Sixers’ rematch against the Hawks. Sort of... The Summer Sixers are back on Thursday as they take on their second game of the NBA’s MGM Resorts Summer League against Atlanta. After the main team collapsed in epic fashion in last season’s playoffs, the young summer squad will have a chance to continue their care-free, entertaining play.
The Sixers got off to a fantastic start in their first Summer League outing, cruising past the Dallas Mavericks with a 95-73 win. Isaiah Joe came out firing. He was calmly hitting threes off movement (including a 4-point play) and finished with 15 points on 4-of-8 shooting from three.
