Brooklyn at Philadelphia 6:00 ET
Nets (+) over 76ers- Ben Simmons returns...does he only the ‘Shadows Knows’ (sorry about that Lamont Cranston fans, the rest google it). Anyway, in this meeting the story line is of who is going to and not going to play. MVP Joel Embiid is out for Philadelphia but that only means Tyrese Maxey has more ball time to display his wears and boy has he taken advantage. Maxey, a first-time All-star poured in 51 points in the 76ers 127-124 win over Utah Thursday ending a 4-game losing streak. Aside from Embiid the Sixers have five other roster players hobbled one way or another. As far as Brooklyn is concerned they were short-handed in heir loss against the Suns with Ben Simmons resting after playing one game after returning from a three-year rest. In his debut he had 10 points, 11 assists, 2 steals, a blocked shot while going 5-
