The Philadelphia 76ers will continue this final stretch of the season on Saturday when they play host to the Miami Heat. The Sixers are currently in the middle of getting into the best position for draft lottery, but they also are looking to end a 6-game losing skid.
As far as the injuries are concerned, let's get the obvious ones out of the way. Joel Embiid (left knee injury management), Paul George (left groin injury), Eric Gordon (right wrist surgery), and Jared McCain (left knee meniscus surgery) are all out.
Tyrese Maxey (right finger sprain), Kyle Lowry (right hip injury management), Kelly Oubre Jr. (right knee sprain), and Andre Drummond (left toe sprain) are all out for this contest. Maxey, Lowry, and Oubre were able to practice in a partial capacity on Friday and Drummond was unable to practice.
Jalen Hood-Schifino (illness) is listed as questionable and Lonnie Walker IV (neck sprain) is listed as probable. Hood-Schifino missed the contest against the Washington Wizards due to the illness and Walker was a full participant at practice on Friday.
The Sixers and the Heat will tip off at 7:30 p.m. EDT from the Wells Fargo Center. If the Sixers lose, they will officially be eliminated from playoff contention and miss the postseason for the first time since the 2016-17 season.
