What to make of this one? The Wizards fell behind early to a Philadelphia 76ers team missing an array of key players, including Joel Embiid and Paul George, got down by as much as 16, only to stage a fourth quarter comeback that saw them leading by two with 1:18 to play, only to have Philadelphia stage a comeback of their own and win by six. Got all that? There might be a quiz.

The mention of Sixers injuries was not intended as a slur on the Wizards. They have their own injury issues — last night, they played without Alex Sarr, Jordan Poole, and Malcolm Brogdon.
