The Sixers and Nuggets are slated to tip off at 3 PM E.T.
The Philadelphia 76ers are apparently scheduled to play basketball at 3 PM E.T. despite the recent COVID-positive test of Seth Curry, who was with the team Thursday night when he learned of his diagnosis. Curry also played with the Sixers on Wednesday, just one day prior to returning a positive test.
In the NBA, you are mandated to play games if you have eight available players. After “contact tracing” took place in New York overnight, the Sixers apparently have nine available players for this afternoon’s showdown with the 3-5 Denver Nuggets.
