As the Philadelphia 76ers prepare to take on the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday night to continue their five-game road trip, they might have to battle the Lakers while missing some key players.
They were without Tobias Harris in Saturday’s win over the Utah Jazz due to left knee soreness, and he is listed as questionable for the matchup with the Lakers. Therefore, nothing has changed with Harris’ status.
James Harden has joined Harris on the injury report. Harden is listed as questionable for the contest with the Lakers due to left heel pain. He scored 18 of his 31 points in the fourth quarter on Saturday. He was a big reason the Sixers came away with a win.

If Harris is unable to go, one has to imagine coach Doc Rivers will turn to De’Anthony Melton again in the lineup. As for Harden, if he can’t go, then the Sixers will have to find a way to replace what The Beard brings to the table.
Tipoff from Crypto.com Arena is set for 9:30 p.m. EST.
