The Philadelphia 76ers will already be entering this matchup with the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday shorthanded in a big way. They are already missing Ben Simmons for what is most likely the rest of the season, but they were also already without Joel Embiid and Josh Richardson as well.
They will now be down two more key players in their matchup.
Tobias Harris and Al Horford were already listed as questionable for this matchup with ankle injuries, but they will now be downgraded to out for this game. Harris is dealing with right ankle soreness while Horford is dealing with left ankle soreness.

This was going to be an uphill battle for the Sixers, to begin with being so shorthanded, but now they will have to face a Suns team that is playing terrific basketball while being down five key members of the team. It will be tough to get a win in this one.
Tipoff is set for 4:30 p.m. EST inside the bubble. [lawrence-related id=36709,36692,36682]
