The Philadelphia 76ers will be away to the Golden State Warriors seeking to get back to winning ways in the NBA. They arrive for this match as the third-best team in the Eastern Conference while the Warriors are 12th in the West. The Warriors have lost their last two matches. Both have been one-possession games and have seen them lose by a point. After a 134-133 defeat to the Kings, Steve Kerr’s men lost 145-144 in OT to the Lakers. It was their 24th loss of the season and saw them drop to five games below .500. Golden State will continue to be without Moses Moody, Chris Paul, and Gary Payton II due to injuries. The Warriors have been the best offensive team in the last week in the league and have averaged 137.0 points a game.

The Sixers are seeing a dip in form and arrive for this match having lost their last three games. Injuries have weighed heavily on the Eastern Conference high-flyers who have had to do without three of their starters in this skid. Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and Tobias Harris have missed games during this poor run though Harris did return last time out. Nick Nurse’s men, who are on the fourth game of a five-match road trip, are coming off a blowout loss in Portland. They were hammered 130-104 by the West strugglers. The loss saw them drop six games off the pace in the Eastern Conference standings. Embiid and Maxey could continue to be sidelined for this match. De’Anthony Melton and Robert Covington are the other players ruled out here.The Sixers have the 6th best-ranked offence but in their last three matches have averaged slightly over 110 points.
