Ben Simmons chipped in with 22 points with
eight rebounds and Tony Bradley, starting in place of Joel
Embiid, put up 18 points and 11 rebounds for the 76ers, who won
for the ninth time in their past 10 games.
Kelly Oubre Jr. had a team-high 24 points with 10 rebounds and
Jordan Poole added 19 points in place of injured Stephen Curry
for the Warriors, who fell back to .500 with a second straight
loss.
After trailing 33-11 to open the game and falling behind by as
many as 24 points in the first half, the Warriors made a
successful uphill climb into a 92-86 lead on a driving layup by
Poole with 7:21 remaining in the game.
But the 76ers regrouped, first with a 10-0 run that featured two
hoops by Shake Milton and a go-ahead 3-pointer by Danny Green.
Oubre forged one final tie at 96-all with 4:10 to go before
Harris dropped in a pair of floaters, Simmons hit two free
throws, Harris added one and Bradley connected on a hook shot to
open a nine-point lead with just 2:12 to play.
Harris complemented his team-high point total with 13 rebounds
to complete a second 76ers double-double. His rebound total
equaled that of teammate Dwight Howard for team-high honors,
helping the 76ers outrebound the Warriors 51-38.
Bradley's double-double was his second of the season and his
point total was a season high.
Milton finished with 13 points, Furkan Korkmaz 12 and Green 11
for the 76ers, who improved to 2-0 on their six-game trip.
Damion Lee had 16 points, Andrew Wiggins 14 and James Wiseman,
returning from a COVID-related absence, 11 for the Warriors, who
fell to 1-4 in games missed by Curry this season.
The Golden State All-Star, sidelined by a bruised tailbone,
wasn't the only Curry missing from the game. Brother Seth sat
out his third straight game for the 76ers due to an ankle
injury.
