The Sixers ended their Orlando Summer League play by finally gaining a win, defeating the Brooklyn Nets 89-86. Temple alumnus Khalif Wyatt, who was undrafted but is looking to impress a team and earn a roster spot for the upcoming season, led the Sixers with 27 points in just over 18 minutes. Arnett Moultrie also contributed to the win, scoring 10 points and pulling down 9 rebounds.
The Sixers starting five for their final game in Orlando was as follows: 1st round draft pick Michael Carter-Williams started again at point guard, Rodney Williams and Justin Holiday started at the other guard positions, Arnett Moultrie and Arsalan Kazemi manned the forward positions. Other players in addition to Wyatt who saw playing time off the bench included Michael Eric (also a Temple alum), James Southerland of Syracuse, Brock Motum of Washington State and Zeke Marshall, who played his college ball at Akron. DJ Cooper, Travis Leslie and Trevor Mbakwe did not play in today's game. Despite Kazemi starting in the game, he only played 10:51, with most of those minutes coming in the first half; he finished with 1 point. There was no report of an injury.
