After Action Report

The 76ers snuck past the Lakers 123-118. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the 76ers cashed in. 76ers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; 76ers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The 76ers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
