Levelers Nets and Durand beat Sixers in Philadelphia
Incredibly, the Nets defeated the Sixers 129-100 in Philadelphia with Kevin Durand stopping at 34 points. The Sixers cheered for Ben Simmons all night, but they ended up cheering for their team.
The Nets went to Philadelphia with just 6 wins in their last 21 games. However, against the Sixers they looked like title contenders and playing great basketball they defeated Philadelphia 100-129!

Coming off 23-40 in the first half and 51-72 in the second, they achieved a margin of as much as 36 points and clinched a comfortable win, with the Friends of Philadelphia congratulating their team at the end.
