The Philadelphia 76ers will be taking on the Oklahoma City Thunder tonight at 7:00 PM EST! This is a very important game for the 76ers; they’re on a 4-game skid, and this is a perfect time for them to turn it around before the end of the season. There’s also a chance they get some key reinforcements back!
Philadelphia 76ers
Philadelphia has blown their last 4 games to the Warriors, Suns, and Bucks (twice). However, injuries have played a major role in their — quite frankly, pathetic — losing streak. As a result of the losing streak, Sixers currently hold the 2nd seed in the Eastern Conference. It shouldn’t be a tough turnaround, though, as Philly has the easiest remaining schedule in the NBA, according to ESPN, while the Brooklyn Nets (who currently hold the 1st seed), have to play the Bucks (twice), Nuggets, and Mavericks.
PHI Injury Report:
- Joel Embiid – QUESTIONABLE
- Ben Simmons – QUESTIONABLE
- Danny Green – QUESTIONABLE
- Tobias Harris – QUESTIONABLE
- Furkan Korkmaz – QUESTIONABLE
- Paul Reed – QUESTIONABLE
Oklahoma City Thunder
Oklahoma City has been absolutely atrocious this season; they sit near the bottom of the Western Conference (13th seed; 20-40), and are in the midst of a 13-game losing streak. However, this is the youngest team in the NBA and one that is, thus, rebuilding. Thunder have also dealt with several injuries, and that doesn’t change tonight.
OKC Injury Report:
- Shai Gilgeous-Alexander – OUT
- Luguentz Dort – OUT
- Josh Hail – OUT
- Mike Muscala – OUT
- Gabriel Deck – OUT
- Tony Bradley – QUESTIONABLE
A loss tonight would be absolutely embarrassing. Whether or not we are missing 2 guys on the injury report or all of them, we’d have to try to lose this game.
