The Philadelphia 76ers take on the Miami Heat on Wednesday in a rematch of Monday’s loss at home. After the game, the Sixers had to worry about a few injury scares along with execution issues.
Tyrese Maxey suffered an ankle injury scare at the end of the third quarter when he fell on Miami’s Victor Oladipo’s foot. Oladipo closed out on Maxey’s step-back. Maxey was on the ground grabbing at his ankle before limping to the bench. Afterward, coach Doc Rivers believed Oladipo should have been called for a flagrant foul.
While Maxey returned to the game, the Sixers also had to deal with Tobias Harris who left in the fourth quarter before returning when Maxey fouled out. Afterward, Rivers said it was a calf issue for Harris and that’s why he was gone.
As far as the injury report for the Sixers for Wednesday’s rematch with the Heat is concerned, Maxey and Harris aren’t on it. Dewayne Dedmon is listed as out again due to left hip tightness.
