The Philadelphia 76ers returned home on Sunday afternoon just in time to take in some NCAA Tournament action. With the Sixers on the West Coast and not having a home game until Monday evening when they host the Oklahoma City Thunder, the first two rounds of the men's NCAA Tournament took place at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
The matchup in Philadelphia on Sunday evening pitted Andre Drummond's Connecticut Huskies taking on Adem Bona's UCLA Bruins. Therefore, the two big man had to be in attendance to root for their alma mater on the floor and advance to the Sweet 16.
Both teams went back-and-forth for a bit, but the Huskies eventually walked away with a 73-57 win over the Bruins to advance to the Sweet 16 and set up a matchup with the Michigan State Spartans on Friday in Washington, D.C.
Drummond playfully had to let Bona know about the final result turning in the favor of his UConn Huskies.
The Huskies will have a good battle on their hands when they face Michigan State on Friday. Drummond and the Sixers will be on the road to begin a 3-game trip against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday, but he can watch from afar as Philadelphia looks to make a run into the top 6 in the East.
