The Philadelphia 76ers, missing Joel Embiid for his ninth straight game due to a knee injury and dealing with multiple other absences, face the winless Brooklyn Nets, who remain winless at home. Despite Tyrese Maxey scoring 20 or more points in every game, the 76ers struggled in a 144-103 loss to the Magic, allowing 80 points in the paint. The Nets, despite Noah Clowney’s career-high 31 points and seven 3-pointers, shot a season-low 29.2% from beyond the arc and are 0-8 at home. Both teams are eliminated from NBA Cup contention and meet Friday in Brooklyn.
