Tyrese Maxey struggled against the Suns, scoring just six points and missing 10 of his 13 shots.
PHOENIX — The home crowd roared when Mo Bamba missed consecutive free throws, and kept the cheers flowing when Kevin Durant snuck behind the 76ers for a breakaway dunk.
“The first quarter, we had it right where we kind of wanted it, barring the offensive rebounding ,” coach Nick Nurse said. “But that kind of was a sign of the night. We just didn’t seem to be moving with the energy that we needed to be.” Instead, two former Suns were the Sixers’ leading scorers. Kelly Oubre Jr. finished with 18 points, five rebounds, and four assists, while reserve guard Cameron Payne scored all 12 of his points in the first half. KJ Martin added 11 points and 13 rebounds.
The Sixers briefly sliced a 19-point deficit to 73-64 on a driving layup by Paul Reed about midway through the third quarter, but two Allen three-pointers sandwiched a Durant turnaround jumper to ignite a 17-2 run to stretch their advantage out to 24 points entering the final frame.
