On Tuesday night, the Philadelphia 76ers hosted the Western Conference-leading OKC Thunder for the first and only time this season. Less than 24 hours from the matchup, news emerged of an injury that occurred during the action.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 32 points and Jalen Williams had 24 to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a 118-102 win over a Philadelphia 76ers team missing three All-Stars on Tuesday night. Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George sat out with injuries as the Sixers continued their slide down the Eastern Conference standings.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 32 points on 12-of-15 shooting to guide the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder to a 118-102 win over the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday.

Full of championship ambition, the 76ers’ slogan for this season was “Made for This.” As boos filled the arena — the first ones heard when an injury report as long as the closing credits on a blockbuster movie appeared on the big screen — Sixers fans had a more irked saying in mind.
