What happened: Jaylen Brown reached 19 points with a basket at the third-quarter horn. Philly closed the period on an 11-0 run and takes a seven-point advantage into the fourth.

Why it matters: Brown is opening his first season in Philadelphia on opening night. Erasing a deficit that dated to the first quarter resets fourth-quarter terms after three quarters chasing.
