After Action Report

The 76ers survived the Mavericks 111-107. The better team simply showed up tonight. The 76ers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; 76ers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Mavericks looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
