PHILADELPHIA -- Last season, a severely shorthanded Trail Blazers team soundly defeated the 76ers on their home court for one of their best road wins of the season.
Nine months later, Philadelphia returned the favor.
Despite being without Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris and Ben Simmons for the entirety of the game and Danny Green for the second half, the 76ers defeated the Trail Blazers 113-103 in front of a sellout crowd of 20,115 Monday night at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia.
“I just think that we’re not good enough to let our guard down against anybody,” said Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups.
