3 observations after Sixers grind out road win behind Simmons and Embiid – NBC Sports
It wasn’t easy, but Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons helped the Sixers grind out a road win Saturday night, a 114-110 decision over the Pistons.
Last season, an away game against a less talented opponent following two encouraging wins over an Eastern Conference foe would likely have been a problem for the Sixers. They lost several frustrating games that fit that description or were very close to it.
While it wasnt easy, the team didn’t replicate that trend and took care of business Saturday night in Detroit, beating the Pistons by a 114-110 score and moving to 12-5.
Detroit was without No. 7 overall pick Killian Hayes (right hip strain)…
