3 – Bayless Rusty in Debut, But Still Efficient

In his first regular season NBA game sporting a Sixers uniform, Jerryd Bayless was a bit rusty in his 16 minutes of action, but he did show some bright spots.

In the third quarter, he connected with Jahlil Okafor on a few pick-and-rolls in traffic to help the Sixers build a lead.

Overall, he finished with four points and tied Sergio Rodriguez for a team-high 5 assists.

He struggled to make his shots from the floor and went just 1-for-7 on field goal attempts, but that’s to be expected after missing the first 13 games of the season with a wrist injury.

It’s safe to see he’ll be a welcomed addition to the team once he’s fully healthy.
