With Kelly Oubre Jr joining Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George on the sidelines, the Sixers’ skeleton crew, playing on the second night of a back-to-back, were blown out by an Atlanta Hawks team playing without star guard Trae Young. Quentin Grimes gave the Sixers a spark with another monster scoring night, but their defense let them down against the short-handed Hawks, who were led by a good all-around performance from rookie Zaccharie Risacher in the win. With the loss, the Sixers fell to 22-42 on the season, and the Sixers’ loss, combined with a Chicago win, puts the Sixers 4.5 out of the final play-in spot with 18 games left to play.
