Sixers return home to face Jokic, Nuggets

The Sixers will play their second game in as many days when they host reigning MVP Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets.

Philadelphia is coming off an ugly win on Sunday when it had to overcome another slow start and a 17-point first half deficit to defeat the lowly Orlando Magic. Joel Embiid struggled from the field, shooting just 9-of-28 but led the way with 35 points, 16 rebounds and 7 assists.

Tobias Harris had his best outing since the James Harden trade, dropping 26 points, including a massive go-ahead 3-pointer with just 31.
