After Action Report

The 76ers snuck past the Rockets 128-123. The 76ers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the 76ers stayed locked in. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
