WASHINGTON (AP) — Jeff Dowtin Jr. scored a career-high 30 points and the Philadelphia 76ers snapped a 12-game losing streak with a 122-103 victory over the Washington Wizards on Wednesday night. Lonnie Walker IV had 24 points for the 76ers, who won despite a lengthy list of injured players that included Joel Embiid, Paul George, Eric Gordon, Kyle Lowry, Tyrese Maxey, Jared McCain and Andre Drummond. Dowtin, a Washington, D.C.-area native on a two-way contract for Philadelphia, played for the 76ers for the first time this month. He went 11 of 15 from the field and made four 3-pointers, surpassing his previous career high of 24 points from March 14 against Indiana. Tristan Vukcevic led Washington with a career-high 24 points. The Wizards were without Jordan Poole, Khris Middleton, Corey Kispert, Bilal Coulibaly and Malcolm Brogdon. Marcus Smart was not listed on the injury report, but did not play. Takeaways 76ers: Philadelphia attempted 50 3-pointers, with four players making at least three. The 76ers turned a close game (they led 53-50 at the half) into a blowout. Wizards: Washington (17-63) will finish with the worst record in the Eastern Conference, although it's possible Charlotte could tie the Wizards. Utah, at the bottom of the West, was 16-63 entering Wednesday. Key moment It was still a competitive game early in the fourth before the 76ers went on a 12-3 run to lead 101-87. It was smooth sailing from there for Philadelphia. Key stat This was Washington's home finale. The Wizards went an NBA-worst 8-32 at home this season, with one game in Mexico City.

Sixers will be down 2 more players in road matchup vs. Thunder
The Philadelphia 76ers will continue their road trip on Wednesday when they pay a visit to the West's No. 1 team, the Oklahoma City Thunder. Both teams will be missing some key pieces as the Thunder are resting MVP frontrunner Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and will also be missing Lu Dort and All-Star Jalen Williams, but the injury woes for the Sixers will continue. Obviously, Philadelphia was missing so many key pieces, but it was hoping to at least have Kelly Oubre Jr. back in the lineup. Oubre will be ruled out after he was listed as doubtful for the contest. He had been out due to a right knee sprain as of late so a doubtful tag was an updated for him. Along with Oubre, the Sixers will be without two-way guard Jeff Dowtin Jr. who will be inactive for this contest against the Thunder. On the bright side, Guerschon Yabusele will return and he will be in the starting lineup. Sixers PF Guerschon Yabusele will play tonight vs. the OKC Thunder. Two-way PG Jeff Dowtin Jr. will be inactive. — Keith Pompey (@PompeyOnSixers) March 19, 2025 The Sixers and the Thunder will tip off at 8 p.m. EDT from the Paycom Center on Wednesday.
