The Philadelphia 76ers, who lost their last 2020-21 NBA game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, play host to the Indiana Pacers at the Wells Fargo Center on Sunday.
Joel Embiid’s prolific form has continued. However, the 76ers lost against the Cavaliers despite a 42-point outing from the NBA MVP favorite. Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris have also been impressive, while Seth Curry and Shake Milton have produced key outings as well.
Meanwhile, the Indiana Pacers have been very inconsistent this campaign, losing a few close games in the last few weeks.
Nevertheless, Domantas Sabonis has been consistently prolific, but the Indiana Pacers will need big performances from multiple stars against the Philadelphia 76ers. They have multiple injury concerns as well but should be able to count on Malcolm Brogdon, who sat out the last match.
Indiana Pacers vs Philadelphia 76ers Injury Updates
Indiana Pacers
The Indiana Pacers have had multiple starters missing for consistent periods this season. The likes of Caris LeVert and TJ Warren are long term absentees, although the former is expected to return to action by the end of March.
The Indiana Pacers have added the likes of Malcolm Brogdon and shooting guard Jeremy Lamb to the doubtful list; both players are expected to feature in the match, though.
The Pacers will need a much better-defensive effort to upset the Philadelphia 76ers.
Philadelphia 76ers
The Philadelphia 76ers could be reeling from their close 3-point loss in their last outing.
With the Cavaliers guard pairing of Darius Garland and Collin Sexton wreaking havoc, the 76ers desperately missed Tobias Harris, their second-most prolific scorer this campaign.
Harris is still on the doubtful list and might not start this match. If that happens to be the case, Furkan Korkmaz could slot in alongside Danny Green for the second consecutive match.
