Postponed Sixers vs. Pelicans matchup rescheduled for January 25th

The postponed matchup between the Philadelphia 76ers and the New Orleans Pelicans has been rescheduled to January 25th.

The Philadelphia 76ers got some scheduling changes done on Monday from a game in December that was postponed due to COVID-19 issues. The Sixers had a matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans back on Dec. 19 that got postponed and they will now know when the game will be made up.

The NBA announced on Monday that the Sixers and the Pelicans will match up at the Wells Fargo Center on Jan. 25 at 7 p.m. EST. The Sixers knocked off the Pelicans back on opening night back in October on the road and they will be looking to sweep the season series with them when they finally make their trip to the City of Brotherly Love.

With the game being moved to the 25th, the Sixers had to have another game around that time moved up. Philadelphia had a back-to-back on Jan. 23 and Jan. 24 with the San Antonio Spurs and the Houston Rockets, respectively.

To avoid having the Sixers play three days ina  row, they moved the Jan. 24 matchup with the Rockets in Houston up to Jan. 10.

It is good for the Sixers to find out who they will play and when. It is good to know that their schedule is set at least.
