Cade Cunningham, Jalen Duren, Marvin Bagley III, Isaiah Livers and Rodney McGruder were out for Detroit.It took Harden 20 seconds to see there was no “lid on the rim” Sunday., Harden drove right against Saddiq Bey and laid the ball in for the Sixers’ opening hoop.
The Sixers began with the Maxey-Harden-De’Anthony Melton guard trio for a third consecutive game. Harrell started for the first time since late November. Paul Reed backed up Harrell and played 24 high-quality minutes, scoring 16 points and pulling down eight offensive rebounds. Early in the second quarter, he grabbed one of those boards and kicked the ball out Georges Niang for a corner three. Reed made another nice pass when he caught the ball in the dunker spot and quickly hit Shake Milton in the middle of the paint. Milton fired it out to Thybulle for a three.
