The Sixers have had some tough games lately. They’ve picked up recent wins against teams like Chicago, Dallas and Miami, before losing their last two competitive outings against the league-best Suns and 2-seed Bucks.
There are positives from the Sixers’ latest defeat against Milwaukee, though. Joel Embiid tallied 29 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists, Danny Green and Shake Milton gave some good minutes off the bench, and James Harden looked more spry on his drives and had his step-back three working to score 32 points on only 17 shots with nine assists.
Now, as the Sixers continue pushing for the top seed in the East and hone their chemistry before the playoffs, they have a far easier schedule to close the regular season.
