The Sixers have proven to be the top team in the NBA this season, winning their eighth straight game with a stunning 50-point performance from Tyrese Maxey against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday.
Now standing at 8-1, leading the Eastern Conference, the Sixers are gearing up to face the Pacers once again in the second game of the In-Season Tournament.
Both teams are at the top of their group standings, with the Sixers holding a slight advantage in point differential, making this match an important one for both teams. Check out the current standings here.
However, the Sixers may face some challenges as Nico Batum is out for personal reasons and Joel Embiid is questionable due to left hip soreness.
Tonight’s game will be the first half of a back-to-back, with the second leg against the Boston Celtics, which could explain the injury report additions after their recent schedule.
In contrast, the Pacers will be at full strength and are known for their fast pace, making them a formidable opponent on a back-to-back game.
