On defense, Golden State was equally impressive; they blocked eight shots while limiting Philadelphia to just forty-two percent shooting from the field. The defensive efforts were complemented by forcing eleven turnovers from Philadelphia and converting those into ten crucial points.


Philadelphia's Struggle


The Philadelphia 76ers struggled to find rhythm offensively against a stout Golden State defense. Despite Joel Embiid's absence being felt on both ends of the court for Philly, they managed to have four players scoring in double figures but couldn't overcome Golden State’s defensive intensity or match their offensive output.

Philadelphia did show resilience in drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line where they capitalized by making eighty-two percent of their free throws but it wasn't enough to mount a serious challenge or cut into Golden State’s lead significantly at any point during the game.
