The 76ers, riding a winning streak, host the Blazers, who snapped a losing skid, as Watford steps up and Henderson returns.

The Philadelphia 76ers, with a 3-1 record on their Western road trip and a top-six playoff spot, face the Portland Trail Blazers, who ended a six-game losing streak with back-to-back wins over Memphis. Forward Trendon Watford has emerged as a key bench contributor, scoring 16 points—his most since November—and adding seven rebounds in recent wins, praised for his spacing and playmaking. His increased role has helped complement Joel Embiid and support the team’s depth. Meanwhile, the Blazers were led by Jerami Grant’s 29 points and Donovan Clingan’s 20 points and 19 rebounds. Scoot Henderson is expected to return from a hamstring issue, while Deni Avdija remains out with a back injury and Shaedon Sharpe is sidelined with a calf strain.
