Daily News | Sixers rally, then hold off Sacramento Kings in wild victory without Joel Embiid and James Harden
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A collection of 76ers raised their arms over their head in a combination of relief and joy as the final seconds ticked off.
The Sixers began their five-game trek West with four consecutive wins, marking a successful trip, regardless of Saturday’s result. About 90 minutes before tipoff, coach Doc Rivers downplayed the potential pitfalls of a “getaway game” before a cross-country flight to Philly.
The shorthanded Sixers looked overmatched in the first half, falling behind, 15-4, in the opening minutes and trailing, 73-52, with about two minutes remaining before the break. But they ended the first half on a 14-3 burst, including a deep three-pointer banked in by Danuel House Jr. at the buzzer. Then, a 13-point burst by Maxey in the third quarter’s initial four minutes, a three-pointer by Harris, and a finish though contact by Harrell tied the game, 86-86, about midway through the period.
