Charlotte Hornets at Philadelphia 76ers
· National Basketball AssociationJared McCain and Guerschon Yabusele lead the 76ers to 107-105 OT win over the Hornets
The Sixers first-round draft pick out of Duke had 23 points in the second half and overtime was 9 for 15 from the floor.
Guerschon Yabusele finished with his career high of 20 points for Philadelphia (2-7), which has yet to win a game in regulation. Paul George added 15 points and nine assists, but did not play any of the overtime period after tallying 33 minutes in his fourth game back from a bone bruise.
Lamelo Ball finished with 38 points in the losing effort for Charlotte (4-6). Ball hit a fadeaway 3-pointer with eight seconds left in the 4th quarter to send the game to overtime. Brandon Miller had 22 points while Grant Williams added 17.
76ers: Without Joel Embiid (suspension, knee injury) and Tyrese Maxey (hamstring strain), Philadelphia’s offensive burden fell on McCain and Yabusele, who are promising but still young in their NBA careers.
