The Philadelphia 76ers will take on the Boston Celtics in Game 6 of their Round 1 series on Thursday.
The Sixers will be looking to stave off elimination once again and force a winner-take-all Game 7 back in Boston with a win.
Sixers Aim to Extend Series
The Sixers will be looking to their stars to get the job done.
Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and Paul George turned in great performances on the road, while Quentin Grimes hopped off the bench and poured in a big effort in support.
This gave Philadelphia everything it needed to stay alive.
Celtics Expected to Respond
The Celtics will undoubtedly come out with a much better showing in this one, so the Sixers will have to be ready for a bigger sense of urgency from Boston.
Embiid’s Probable Status
Joel Embiid is PROBABLE for the Sixers (post appendectomy surgery recovery).
The Sixers will be in their Association Edition (White).
Here’s when and where you should tune in to see the matchup.
