The Philadelphia 76ers will hit the road on Sunday for a quick game against the rival Boston Celtics. The two teams haven’t played each other since Nov. 11, with Philadelphia having met three times in the first 11 games of the season. The 76ers won two of those three games.
As far as the injury report goes, the 76ers will continue to be without Paul George as he continues to serve a 25-game suspension for violating the league’s anti-drug policy.
