Evan Mobley made a game-winning block, while Donovan Mitchell led the charge with 28 points, and Darius Garland added 23.
On the other side, Banchero received help from Franz Wagner, who scored 14 points, while his brother Moritz had eight.
In a gunslinger duel between Tyrese Maxey and Jalen Brunson, the Philadelphia 76ers guard emerged victorious, scoring 46 points to lead his side to a 106-112 road win, facing elimination.
