Nick Nurse said Tobias Harris (illness) is in the building and is going to try to warm up and go tonight.
He also said this is “getting there” as far as the most banged-up roster he’s had — and that they’re at a point where they’re trying to “salvage” or “pick off” wins. – 5:29 PM

Quiet Deadline coming?
Maybe not. We’ve had 10+ trades on deadline day each of the past 5 years. Here’s what could happen this week:
1. LAL to get < the tax ($1.3M over)
2. PHI to get < the tax ($4.3M over)
3. GS to offload money (moving $20M = $113M in tax savings)
4. ATL… – 2:49 PM

To win the title the Sixers would need Embiid and Maxey 100% healthy, peaking and in shape AND luck. That’s out of the cards. If they only just barely miss the playoffs, they could still land a top no. 1-4 pick. – 1:34 PM
