The Brooklyn Nets are home to the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday, one night after losing to the Toronto Raptors on Saturday night, on the road. Yikes.
Philadelphia (20-7) is on a roll, while Brooklyn sits just above water. Still no Kyrie Irving for the Nets, and the 76ers will be without Joel Embiid. Al Horford, who’s been out for the last two games, will play.
Expect nothing but a battle in this one, but the Nets are going to need someone - or, someones - to step up big time if they want to compete.
