The Sixers have won their last two games. Both were at home - against the Bucks and the Kings. Nick Nurse’s men edged a close one against Sacramento last time out, 113-111. With 26 wins, they are now five games above .500.
Joel Embiid and Paul George, who have been in and out of the team, are passed fit in the latest injury report. Quentin Grimes is the only player on the report, as he is day-to-day with an ankle issue.
The Pelicans are on a resurgence and will hope to capitalize on this wave and uplift a burdensome season. James Borrego’s men have won three of their last four fixtures.
They have won twice against the Grizzlies in this run and also produced a shock victory in San Antonio. The Pels, who defeated the Grizzlies 114-106 last time out, are on the second night of a back-to-back schedule.
