76ers 132 [win] 130 Spurs
★ Shake Milton｜16 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists
After the 76ers head coach gave up on Ben Simmons as the starting point guard and switched to power forward, the 76ers were finally able to legitimately bring Shake Milton into the starting lineup. Milton, who performed surprisingly well this season and even scored 39 points against the "Spaceship", although quiet in the previous game, his performance in the second game proved that he is definitely qualified to earn this position!
Milton can not only shoot three-pointers on the offensive end, but he and Simmons are on the court at the same time, giving the Sixers more options to handle the ball at the same time and activate the flow of the ball; plus Joel Embiid Repeatedly wreaking havoc in the penalty area, the Sixers even took a stable lead of more than 10 points in the middle and late stages of the game; until the Spurs staged a desperate counterattack in the fourth quarter, DeMar DeRozan and Rudy Gay's one-two punch, the Spurs overtook the Spurs in the end. Leading 130-128, but unexpectedly the stage was set for Milton:

76ers 130 [Loss] 136 Clippers
★ Shake Milton｜39 points, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 3FG 7-9
Without Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid, and even Josh Richardson who left the game in the second quarter due to a broken nose, the 76ers' second-rounder Shake Milton came out from the end of the bench and scored 39 points in the entire game to contribute offensive firepower. Unfortunately, it was still unable to help the team win the Clippers in the end.
Milton was the 54th overall pick in the second round of 2018. He only scored in double figures three times in his rookie year. After joining the starting lineup at the end of January this year, he has scored in double figures in 7 games. With a hot touch, he scored 26 points in the first half today, which almost matched his career high (the original career high was 26 points on January 30). 27 points scored by the Hawks). "I have been preparing, but actually I was just waiting for an opportunity." Milton said in an interview after the game: "When I made the first few shots, especially the first three shots, I knew that my touch was coming. Being able to do this is actually It's cool, I haven't actually played at Staples Center yet."
Affected by the injury, the 76ers, who have been unable to improve their combat effectiveness this season, are even more stretched. Currently, they have fallen out of the top four in the Eastern Conference, trailing the Heat by one and a half games, and are only half a game behind the sixth-place Pacers.
