Updated NBA Cup Group B Standings After Sixers' Loss to Celtics

The Philadelphia 76ers opened their NBA Cup campaign with a narrow 109–108 defeat to the Boston Celtics on Friday. Despite trailing by as many as 24 points, they mounted an impressive comeback but ultimately fell short, marking their first loss of the season.

This setback leaves Philadelphia in a challenging position in their bid to reach Las Vegas and compete for the Cup title. It’s the third season of the NBA Cup, and the Sixers have yet to advance beyond group play, but three more games remain to change that narrative.

The next opportunity for the Sixers to turn things around will come on November 14, when they visit the Detroit Pistons for their second Group B matchup.
