Meanwhile, Kelly Oubre Jr. and Trendon Watford haven't yet recovered from their respective injuries. Oubre Jr. is nursing a left knee injury, while Watford is recovering from a left adductor issue.

After a hot start to the season, the Sixers have cooled off. With a 5-5 record over their last 10 games, Nick Nurse's team is languishing in the play-in position, sitting in ninth place in the East. Overall, the Sixers have won 11 of their 20 games.
