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.

Before Maxey exited the game, his shooting struggles continued as it appeared that the injured pinky on his shooting hand was impacting how he played in his 23 minutes of run.
