After Action Report

The 76ers survived the Jazz 127-124 in overtime. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; Jazz's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them.

  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
