Without the big fella, playing 5-out against a team that starts Zion Williamson and Jonas Valancuinas is a pretty good idea.Joel Embiid was a late scratch due to an illness. Zion Williamson had 33 points as well, going a perfect 11-of-11 from the field, which set a Pelicans record. Tyrese Maxey led all scorers with 33 points, shooting 13-of-25 from the field. The final score is a little deceiving as the Sixers trailed by 20 points or so for most of the contest.
Yeah, just completely throw that one away.įor the first time this year, the Sixers got clobbered, falling 124-114 to the New Orleans Pelicans Wednesday night.
