The Sixers defeated the Milwaukee Bucks 107-106 in the Sixers’ first Summer League game of 2019. After building a strong lead and maintaining it for most of the game, the Sixers nearly gave this one away as the Bucks pulled within a point with 19.5 seconds remaining. But Philly was ultimately able to squeeze out the victory in what was one of the funner Summer League games I can recall, with Zhaire Smith and Norvel Pelle slamming home dunks at every opportunity.
Below are some of my takeaways from the win.
Marial Shayok looked good shooting the ball, he has a quick release on catch-and-shoot threes.
