After falling short to the Houston Rockets in double-overtime last Monday, the Philadelphia 76ers finished the week on a high note.
The Sixers returned home on Friday night to face the Los Angeles Lakers. Although the Sixers nearly allowed a comeback victory in favor of the Lakers, Philly came out on top in overtime.
On Sunday, the Sixers returned to their home court to host the Charlotte Hornets. For the first time in a while, the Sixers managed to collect a comfortable victory as they put the Kings away with a double-digit win.
