Overview
- The 76ers beat the Wizards 131-110 at Xfinity Mobile Arena, with Embiid scoring 28, George 23 and Maxey 22 as seven Philadelphia players hit double figures.
- Philadelphia had its full roster available for the first time since December 2023, as Kelly Oubre Jr. returned after 22 games out and Trendon Watford logged a brief stint.
- Embiid played his fifth straight game and went 10-for-14 in 25 minutes, then was listed as questionable for Friday at Orlando due to left knee injury management.

- Andre Drummond moved to 30th on the NBA’s all-time rebounding list, and separate reports indicated Washington agreed to acquire Trae Young for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert shortly after the game.
