Instant observations: VJ Edgecombe, Justin Edwards, Quentin Grimes lead Sixers to much-needed win over Kings
Justin Edwards and Quentin Grimes have played a whole lot of March basketball together over the last two years.
If there is one feeling that has persisted throughout the 2025-26 Sixers season, it is volatility. Signs of major promise have been routinely followed up by devastating crashes back down to harsh realities, and vice versa.
So, it was only fitting that after suffering an embarrassing wire-to-wire loss at the hands of the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday, the shorthanded Sixers notched an emphatic 139-118 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Thursday. Even more fittingly, they still managed to display both high-caliber, cohesive play and brutal, sloppy runs. Luckily for the Sixers, there was much more of the former than the latter.
