Caught up with P.J. Tucker in the Clippers’ locker room. He wore a Phillies cap and chain to the arena tonight.
When asked about the reception he thinks James Harden will get tonight, he said through chuckles: “I don’t expect it to be pretty. It’ll be interesting.” – 6:51 PM
David Hardisty @clutchfans
Ime Udoka said he “got a good glimpse” of the advantages of Jabari Smith Jr at center in summer league: “As long as it’s not a Jokic, Embiid, one of those true back-to-the-basket bigs, we feel really confident with him guarding them better than they can guard him.” – 6:45 PM

James is out to warm up. Court a little more crowded than usual because 76ers had a pregame walkthrough that ran a bit late.
Neither team had shootaround after playing each other Sunday and playing in California Monday. That time zone adjustment is real pic.twitter.com/E4V00u4tjB6:43 PM

Nick Nurse, asked about Joel Embiid, said he thinks there’s “very good likelihood” he’ll return before play-in/playoffs.
Robert Covington’s been “making some progress.” De’Anthony Melton is “not as close yet.” Team is “hopeful” both will be back before the regular season ends. – 5:56 PM
