Sixers kick off stretch run at home against the Grizzlies

Following seven days between games, the Philadelphia 76ers return from the All-Star Break to face another high-profile opponent, this time in the form of the Memphis Grizzlies. At 35-22, Memphis is second in the West and five games back of the top-seeded Denver Nuggets. Philadelphia is 38-19, third in the East and three games back of the top-seeded Boston Celtics.

The Grizzlies do, however, remain without starting center Steven Adams, who has been out since Jan. 23 because of a PCL sprain in his right knee. Luka Kennard is also out due to a non-COVID illness.
