Charlotte defeated Philadelphia 130–93 on January 26 at Spectrum Center, a dominant 37-point victory that fell well short of the 229.5-point Vegas total. B. Miller led the Hornets with 30 points, supported by R. Kalkbrenner's 13 as Charlotte shot 56.6 percent from the field and made 17 three-pointers. The hosts controlled the second quarter decisively, outscoring the 76ers 41–22 to establish command early. Philadelphia's offense collapsed outside that stretch, shooting just 39.3 percent overall and managing only nine threes while turning the ball over 17 times. The 76ers' K. Oubre Jr. (17 points) and J. McCain (16 points) could not generate consistent scoring, and Charlotte's defense held them to a 90.9 offensive rating. The Hornets' 34 assists and 53 rebounds underscored their ball movement and rebounding advantage on a night when they outrebounded Philadelphia 53–33. This lopsided result signals Charlotte's defensive capabilities while raising questions about Philadelphia's consistency heading into the stretch run.
