The Philadelphia 76ers are enjoying their first win streak of the season after finally stringing two victories together, but it’s going to take a lot to push that streak to three as they host the 15-8 Orlando Magic on Wednesday night.
This contest is coming on a tough turnaround for both teams — the Sixers less than 24 hours removed from their win visiting the Charlotte Hornets, and the Magic less than 24 hours removed from a lopsided loss visiting the New York Knicks. No excuses about being on a back-to-back allowed here.
Excuses aside, however, it’s too early to say what the lineups will be, as it being a back-to-back may influence the availability of veteran players like Paul George.
