Top Usage% Leaders for Philadelphia 76ers at Phoenix Suns: Who Drives Possessions

The primary usage role here is held by Joel Embiid (Philadelphia 76ers), and the table below connects that to the box-score and shooting splits. Their brief snapshot: Min 32, Usage% 33.7, 26.9 PPG, 7.7 RPG, 3.9 APG, TS% 60.5, eFG% 52.7, +/- 4.1, and TO/G 2.9.

Philadelphia 76ers’s leaders are Joel Embiid (33.7), Tyrese Maxey (29.6), and Paul George (23.4), and Phoenix Suns’s leaders are Devin Booker (32.5), Jalen Green (32.2), and Dillon Brooks (28.8), and this breakdown highlights who is most involved. A more tight top line usually means heavier on-ball responsibility for the primary option, while a balanced top three can signal more shared creation and easier rotation coverage if one piece is limited.

Games in the last 7 days reads flat (0 vs 0), keeping density from being the lone driver. The short-term travel split favors Philadelphia 76ers (358.3 vs 0), and that toll can show up at tip and late. Weekly miles travelled is balanced (0 vs 0), so the travel picture reads balanced.

Season Profile Comparison: Philadelphia 76ers vs Phoenix Suns

These tables are grouped to make the season profile easier to scan. Each category is anchored to two key stats, since that’s usually where you can tell which side has the cleaner path if the game follows form.

Record & Scoring

Phoenix Suns leads both win percentage (61) and point margin (1.5), a strong signal that the scoring baseline is on their side. If Philadelphia 76ers is going to swing this category, it usually needs a pace spike or a shooting night that compresses the margin fast.

Metric Philadelphia 76ers Phoenix Suns
Record (W-L) 45-37 45-37
Win Percentage 53.7 61
Points For 115.9 112.6
Points Against 116.1 111.1
Points Margin -0.2 1.5

Efficiency

Phoenix Suns leads on shooting efficiency (112.8) and field goal efficiency (53.7), and that combination often reduces volatility. If the game slows, those efficiency edges can become louder because each possession carries more weight.

Metric Philadelphia 76ers Phoenix Suns
Field Goal % 0.7 0.7
Three-Point % 0.2 0.3
Shooting Efficiency 110 112.8
Field Goal Efficiency 53 53.7
Free Throw Rate 0.3 0.2
Three-Point Rate 0.4 0.5
Free Throw % 0.8 0.8

Tempo, Ratings & Turnovers

Phoenix Suns owns the net rating edge (1.3), while Philadelphia 76ers has the ball-security edge (13), so this category becomes a trade. In a one-game sample, turnovers can matter more than ratings if they turn into easy points going the other way.

Metric Philadelphia 76ers Phoenix Suns
Pace 102.3 100.1
Net Rating 0.5 1.3
Offensive Rating 112.5 112
Defensive Rating 112 110.7
Turnovers Per Game 13 13.5

Rebounding, Ball Movement & Disruption

With offensive boards and steals near even (0.3/0.3, 9.1/9.5), the edge becomes about finishing possessions—secure rebounds, smart outlets, and clean first passes. One short run created by two mistakes is often enough to win the section.

Metric Philadelphia 76ers Phoenix Suns
Rebounds Per Game 43.6 43.1
Offensive Rebounds 0.3 0.3
Defensive Rebounds 0.7 0.7
Assists Per Game 24.6 24.6
