As the fourth nor’easter in the last month was hammering Philadelphia, the 76ers were inside the Wells Fargo Center exacting a fiery revenge on the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Sixers earned an easy wire-to-wire, 119-105 win Wednesday night, improving to 40-30 on the season, two months after the Grizzlies’ comeback victory in Memphis on Jan. 22.
The Sixers’ starters laid the groundwork for a perfect first night of a back-to-back, combining for 72 points and creating enough of a lead that they rested for the entirety of the fourth quarter.
Methodically, the Sixers grew their lead through the first two quarters with contributions from every player who stepped on the court, while holding Memphis to just 16 made field goals in the first half.
