After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the 76ers rolled past the Jazz 120-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the 76ers. The Jazz looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Jazz · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Jazz · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
