Philadelphia: So far during this NBA season has been a lot of ups and downs especially trying to get as many games played while dealing with covid-19.
here’s the latest on what’s been going on with the 76ers since the last time we saw them in game action.
The Sixers have not played a game since this past Saturday when they lost to Memphis and had their gaming at Oklahoma City on Sunday get postponed due to contact tracing
The Sixers would receive some news about one of their players
#Sixers SG Seth Curry has been cleared to play in tomorrowโs game vs. #Celtics. He is not listed on the NBA injury report. Curry had missed the last five games while in the NBAโs health and safety protocol after testing positive for COVID-19.

Sixers coach Doc Rivers would speak at practice the other day and we’ll talk about turnovers
#Sixers coach Doc Rivers on too many turnovers: 'I think a lot of that is just bad basketball where we need to work on our spacing.' Also a byproduct of players being out.
