It's a bonus if Cade Cunningham is available to play. He's questionable after missing the last three games due to knee soreness.
Regardless of his status, though, this is too many points for the 76ers to be laying this late in the season when they carry a high fatigue rating and need to be careful in doling out minutes to their starters.
It's the 76ers' third game in four days and fourth matchup in six days.
The 76ers nearly were upset by the Spurs in their last game this past Sunday, needing overtime to win.
This is Philadelphia's first home game in a week having played its last three games on the road.
Joel Embiid is questionable after missing the Spurs game. If he does suit up, the 76ers are likely to be careful in monitoring his minutes. Same with Tyrese Maxey, who scored 52 points against the Spurs, but logged 54 minutes. The 76ers could get Tobias Harris and Kyle Lowry back, but aren't expected to have De'Anthony Melton and Robert Covington.
