The Philadelphia 76ers are in the middle of having to battle through a slew of injuries as they continue to try and get on track. After falling to the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday, they sit at 9-9 entering the Thanksgiving holiday.
The positives that the Sixers can lean on in these moments is the play of Shake Milton and De’Anthony Melton. The two of them have stepped in for the injured James Harden and Tyrese Maxey and they have both played well in their absence.
In Tuesday’s loss, Milton had 22 points, nine assists, and seven rebounds and Melton poured in 20 points with six rebounds and four steals.
