The Philadelphia 76ers will look to extend their three-game winning streak on Wednesday when they face the Detroit Pistons on the road. The Pistons have lost 20 straight, tied for the ninth-longest losing streak in the NBA, while the Sixers’ most recent win (146-101) came against the Washington Wizards.
Kelly Oubre was out for nearly a month and missed 11 games while recovering from a broken rib. He has, however, featured in Philadelphia’s last three games and is expected to suit up against the Pistons. In 11 games this season, Oubre is averaging 14.5 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals.
Fourth-year guard Tyrese Maxey saw an increase in his production after James Harden left. Maxey has proven excellent as a point guard with a season average of 6.7 assists per game.
It’s not just his playmaking that has fans excited, he's also averaging 27.0 points, a 6.7-point jump from 2022-23. Against the Pistons, Maxey is expected to take up his usual playmaking and scoring responsibilities.
While most of the Philadelphia 76ers (15-7) roster is good to go for the matchup, reigning MVP Joel Embiid is listed as questionable with a knee issue.
