Coach Steve Kerr made some adjustments to his starting five with Jimmy Butler out with a minor injury. Kerr's lineup featured Steph Curry, Brandin Podziemski, Moses Moody, Draymond Green and Quinten Post. Curry had 56 points in his previous game.

Meanwhile, coach Nick Nurse has been used to Embiid's absence, but he has a healthier roster now. Nurse's starting five are Tyrese Maxey, Quentin Grimes, Kelly Oubre Jr., Paul George and Andre Drummond. With Embiid out, the Sixers might be more inclined to go for the lottery than the playoffs.

With stars like Steph Curry, Paul George and Tyrese Maxey on the court, it was Quentin Grimes who stole the show. Grimes scored a career-high 44 points to help the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Golden State Warriors. He went 18-for-24 from the field and could have had a 50-piece if he didn't go 2-for-8 from the charity stripe.

Maxey had a really off night, finishing with just five points on 14 shots, while George contributed 17 points, eight rebounds, four assists and two steals. Guerschon Yabusele added 18 points, five rebounds and six assists off the bench.
