Philadelphia 76ers Player Grades
Starters
Tyrese Maxey
Maxey had a colder shooting game at just 29.4% from the field but stayed aggressive and got to the line. He ran the offense well with 9 assists and was perfect from the stripe. Not his best game but he found ways to contribute.
VJ Edgecombe
VJ struggled with his efficiency but hit a clutch three late in the fourth quarter that was huge. His shooting numbers weren't great but he made the shot that mattered most.
Kelly Oubre Jr.
Oubre had some questionable three-point attempts going 0-for-5 from deep, but he made up for it with a clutch putback late in the fourth to put Philly ahead. That play won them the game.
Andre Drummond
Drummond put up another solid double-double with 14 points and 13 boards. He was efficient from the field and dominated the glass with 4 offensive rebounds.
Trendon Watford
Watford shot just 30% from the field in this one. He didn't have much going offensively but didn't hurt the team either.
Bench
Justin Edwards
Edwards was absolutely sensational and kept the Sixers alive with his hot shooting from three. Going 8-for-9 from the field and 5-for-6 from deep is incredible efficiency. He was the spark plug they desperately needed off the bench.
Quentin Grimes
Grimes had a great game and kept Philly alive late in the third quarter, including a ridiculous 44-foot buzzer beater to end the third. He shot 60% from the field and contributed across the board with 6 boards and 4 assists.
Adem Bona
Bona was borderline unplayable offensively, missing both free throws and not looking to score. The 4 boards and 2 blocks provide some defensive value but he needs to be more aggressive on offense.
Jabari Walker
Walker didn't score but dished out 3 assists in 10 minutes. He made the right plays and didn't force anything.
Jared McCain
McCain had another scoreless outing going 0-for-2 in 7 minutes. Still working his way back from injury.
