The Philadelphia 76ers didn’t play on Sunday, but took another step in the Process.
The Sixers clinched a playoff berth for the first time in six seasons after the Indiana Pacers defeated the Miami Heat 113-107 on Sunday night. They last made the postseason during the lockout shortened 2011-12 campaign when they went 35-31. Philadelphia is currently 42-30 and fourth in the Eastern Conference with 10 games remaining in the regular season. With Joel Embiid missing 31 games last year and potential rookie of the year Ben Simmons the entire season, the Sixers went just 28-54. But with both stars healthy, Philly took a major stride forward this season.
