Who was the Sixers’ Bell Ringer in their season-opener vs. the Milwaukee Bucks?

The Philadelphia 76ers opened their regular season with... well, what very much looked like the first game of a new season as the shorthanded Sixers fell 124-109 to the Milwaukee Bucks

The Sixers were without Joel Embiid (injury management) and Paul George (left knee bone bruise) after both were ruled out for the team’s season opener. Nevertheless, the show must go on, as it always does.

Despite missing two star-caliber players, Philadelphia looked good out of the gate. Strong offensive rebounding helped the Sixers to a one-point lead after the first frame. The dam started to break in the second, however, with the Bucks starting to pour on the points and the Sixers struggling to get any of their shots to fall.
