The COVID issues are continuing to affect the Philadelphia 76ers as they continue to try and get back on track and find consistency.
With the Sixers already missing Georges Niang, Andre Drummond, and Shake Milton to the health and safety protocols, a fourth Sixer will now join them in the form of veteran Danny Green.
Green is shooting 37.4% from deep in his second season in Philadelphia as he continues to play a vital role next to Joel Embiid. It has been an up and down season for Green as he has been dealing with a variety of injuries and now, he enters the protocols and will be out for Thursday’s matchup with the Atlanta Hawks.
76ers guard Danny Green has entered COVID-19 protocols and is listed out vs. Hawks on Thursday. Fourth Philadelphia player in health and safety.

The Sixers will have to hope that Furkan Korkmaz can at least return from a non-COVID illness and add depth with Green out now. Or else the Sixers will have to rely more on young players like Isaiah Joe or Myles Powell to step in and provide some production.
