Justin Edwards makes NBA debut in Philly’s blowout loss

Justin Edwards made his NBA debut for the Philadelphia 76ers Sunday night in a 26-point loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.

Edwards played six minutes in his debut, racking up six points (2-3 FG) and two rebounds. Tyrese Maxey scored 17 points (5-13 FG) in the loss, which dropped the Sixers’ record to a lowly 3-13.
