 +Playing their third game in as many nights, the Warriors took a raucous affair from the [[Rebels|Cleveland Rebels]] in overtime, 83-78, at the Philadelphia Arena.

 +In the third quarter, Cleveland’s Ed Sadowski fouled [[Joe Fulks]] hard, with both men going to the floor.

 +[[George Senesky]] left the game in the fourth quarter with a severe gash to the face suffered during what was described as a “melee under the basket”.
