76ers Lose to Clippers in Paul George's Return

The Philadelphia 76ers faced a tough defeat against the Los Angeles Clippers, losing 110-98 in Paul George's return to L.A. George scored 18 points efficiently, but the Sixers struggled, dropping to a 1-6 record this season amidst mounting frustrations. The Clippers fans booed George, reflecting their disdain for his offseason departure, yet he maintained good relations with former teammates. Tyrese Maxey was ruled out with hamstring soreness, further complicating the Sixers' efforts as they struggled with turnovers and a lack of offensive rhythm. Despite a tied score at halftime, a poor third quarter sealed the Sixers' fate, with the team now tied for the worst record in the NBA. They will continue their West Coast trip against the Lakers next.
