Despite a valiant effort in the first half, the very shorthanded Philadelphia 76ers, playing without starters Joel Embiid, Paul George, Tyrese Maxey and Kelly Oubre Jr, while also missing reserve big men Adem Bona and Andre Drummond, fell to the Eastern Conference leading Detroit Pistons on Thursday night to fall to 35-31 on the season.

Detroit took control thanks to a 31-25 quarter, with All-Star big man Jalen Duren, who finished with 9 points and 6 rebounds in the frame, taking over the game. The Pistons received a balanced attack, with Duncan Robinson, Tobias Harris, Kevin Huerter, Javonte Green, Ron Holland, Isaiah Stewart and Duren all finishing in double figures. Cade Cunningham dished out 13 assists in the win.

Kelly Oubre has an elbow injury that will rule him out for the next two weeks as the Sixers’ season heads off a cliff. Can VJ Edgecombe or potentially Joel Embiid save the season before it’s completely over?

Cam Payne went OFF against the Grizzlies, finishing with a career-high 32 points and 10 assists on a perfect 8-8 from 3-point range, leading the Sixers to a much-needed win over the “struggling” Memphis Grizzlies on the back of his historic performance.

Payne became the first player in franchise history to record 30+ points and 10+ assists off the bench, and also became the first player in franchise history to finish with 8 or more made 3s without a miss.

The Sixers, still playing without Joel Embiid, Paul George and Tyrese Maxey, also received huge performances from Kelly Oubre Jr (31 points and 12 rebounds), VJ Edgecombe (21 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists) and Quentin Grimes (22 points).
