What happened: Law Murray noted that the Philadelphia 76ers' bench stretches continue to give head coach Nick Nurse little reason to go to his substitutes.

Why it matters: Heavy reliance on the primary unit remains a central theme for a 76ers coaching staff leaning on star talent over lineup continuity. Limited production from the reserves forces the starters into extended minutes to keep pace.

What to watch: Nurse's rotation management over the remaining minutes will dictate whether Philadelphia can erase the deficit.
