In a challenging matchup against the Indiana Pacers, the Philadelphia 76ers fell short, losing 112-100 at home. The Sixers struggled with depth, fielding only eight available players, which proved detrimental despite holding a double-digit lead in the first half. Jeff Dowtin Jr. stood out, scoring a career-high 24 points, supported by Adem Bona and Jared Butler with 16 and 17 points respectively.

Butler's aggressive approach helped him contribute effectively, while Dowtin showcased impressive scoring and playmaking. Ricky Council IV and Oshae Brissett also had notable performances but were unable to shift the momentum in the second half. The team’s defensive lapses allowed the Pacers to capitalize, leading to the disappointing result.
