76ers realize critical truth about themselves in frustrating loss to Nets The 76ers' 114-106 loss to the Nets on Tuesday proved that Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid and Paul George still need time to develop chemistry.

2 DAYS AGO • THESIXERSENSE.COM

Andre Drummond - Double-double off bench Drummond closed Tuesday's 114-106 loss to Brooklyn with 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-2 FT) and 13 rebounds across 17 minutes.

Impact Drummond reverted to the 76ers' bench Tuesday following the return of Joel Embiid (knee/illness), but the former still made an impact in a reserve role with eight offensive rebounds, en route to his 11th double-double of the regular season. Drummond was limited to just 40 games during the 2024-25 regular season due to multiple injuries, but he has played in 27 of 28 regular-season games (including 13 starts) to open the 2025-26 campaign, which has been particularly important given Embiid's knee injury management.

Paul George - Shows defensive chops vs. Brooklyn George ended with 19 points (5-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds, two assists, two blocks and four steals in 33 minutes during Tuesday's 114-106 loss to the Nets.

Impact George finished Tuesday's loss as the 76ers' second-leading scorer behind Joel Embiid (27 points), but the former made most of his impact on the defensive end of the floor with a season-high six stocks. George missed the first 12 games of the regular season while recovering from offseason knee surgery but has played in 12 of the 76ers' last 16 games, averaging 16.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists, 1.6 steals and 2.4 threes over 27.3 minutes per game over that span.

Joel Embiid - Team-high 27 points in return Embiid chipped in 27 points (8-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 10-12 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two blocks across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 114-106 loss to the Nets.

Impact Embiid was cleared to return Tuesday from a two-game absence while working through an illness and knee injury. He came out firing with 19 points in the first half, and while he briefly left for the locker room after appearing to aggravate a knee injury in the third quarter, he was cleared to return in the same frame. Embiid has played in five of the 76ers' nine games since Dec. 2, and over that span he has averaged 23.2 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.2 blocks over 29.6 minutes per game. The 76ers' next game takes place Friday against the Bulls, which gives Embiid more time to rest and recover ahead of that contest.
