Zion Williamson had 23 points and 12 rebounds and Naji Marshall scored 19 points to lead the New Orleans Pelicans to a 103-95 win on Friday night over a Philadelphia 76ers team spiraling without injured All-Stars Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey.The Pelicans held on after a 36-point lead was trimmed to five on a Jeff Dowtin Jr. 3-pointer with 45 seconds left in the game. The 76ers scored 34 points in a hard-charging fourth quarter, but simply ran out of time to complete a tremendous comeback.
Coach Nick Nurse said ahead of the game Maxey was "doing just fine" following the steps of the NBA concussion protocol and hopeful of returning for Sunday’s game against the Knicks.Think the 76ers miss their franchise stars? The Sixers scored only 15 points in the first quarter and went nearly three minutes into the second quarter before they scored a point. The 76ers missed 18 of 20 3s in the first half.
