After Action Report

In Utah, the 76ers squeaked past the Jazz 148-146 in overtime. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the 76ers; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The 76ers bench chemistry carried them. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · 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 · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
