The Philadelphia 76ers look to pick up a much-needed win when they take on the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday night. The Sixers will be without key starters.
Joel Embiid (left knee injury recovery), Kyle Lowry (rest) and Tobias Harris (left knee contusion) are out against the Spurs. Embiid and Lowry played in Saturday’s win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Harris will miss his third consecutive game with the injury.
As for Tyrese Maxey, he was listed as questionable due to left hip tightness. He will play against the Spurs on Sunday evening.
Sixers point guard Tyrese Maxey will play tonight vs. the Spurs, while Tobias Harris will miss his third straight game with a left knee contusion.

The Sixers are chasing the Miami Heat and the Indiana Pacers in the standings and need this one. It will be tough to defend Spurs rookie phenom Victor Wembanyama without the services of Embiid, but Maxey should provide scoring for this group.
Tipoff from the Frost Bank Center is set for 7 p.m. EDT.
