Dorell Wright had 28 points on the day, shooting 8-for-11 from the field, with 5-for-8 from range. He also had an assist, a steal and six rebounds on the day. He led the way for both teams, with Spencer Hawes for the 76ers coming in second. Hawes shot 9-for-14 and had 20 points on the day.

For the Grizzlies, who are now 18-8, Marc Gasol led the way on 9-for-15 shooting, with 18 points, eight assists and eight rebounds. Zach Randolph pulled down nine rebounds and also shot 10-for-18 from the field.
