Hey, that was a nice win against the Utah Jazz, wasn’t it? Without Kevin Durant - who remains out for Covid-19 reasons - the Nets buried the Jazz. Now, they turn their attention to the Philadelphia 76ers who are out here just crushing their opponents.
Led by Joel Embiid, the 7-1 Sixers dropped 141 points on the Wizards on Wednesday night. Doing much of their damage this season on the defensive side of the ball, they’ll check in with the league’s number one defense heading into Barclays on Thursday night.
The Nets will once again be without Kevin Durant.
