The Philadelphia 76ers defeated the visiting Brooklyn Nets 117-95 in their penultimate preseason contest on Wednesday night.
The Sixers were without Joel Embiid (will not appear in preseason), Paul George (bone bruise, left knee) and Kyle Lowry (rest). The Nets were without Ben Simmons (of course).
Not too much back and forth to recap here, so I’ll keep it short. The Sixers seemed to shoot a bit better tonight with not such a slow start at the previous preseason games, allowing them to take the lead early in the contest and never let it go.
