As NBA teams gear up for the upcoming season, the Atlanta Hawks are set to clash with Philadelphia 76ers in a preseason matchup.
The hosts hasn't been particularly active in preseason games so far. In October, they've only participated in one exhibition match, going up against a formidable opponent in Indiana. Despite the limited action, the Hawks impressed neutral fans by delivering a top-notch performance, securing a narrow victory with a 131-130 scoreline. While the win was exciting, it wasn't without flaws as Atlanta's defense left much to be desired, allowing the Pacers too much room to operate and committing a concerning 20 turnovers.
The visitors, on the other hand, heads into the upcoming game far from their best form. After a dominant victory over New Zealand (139-84), the 76ers struggled when they faced more competitive American teams, falling to Minnesota (111-121) and Boston (89-139). The game against the reigning NBA champs was particularly disappointing. The 76ers stumbled right out of the gate, trailing 40-18 in the first quarter, and were unable to mount a serious comeback.

Jared McCain rounds out the double-digit scorers, and Kelly Oubre Jr. is adding 3 rebounds to the mix.
However, the 76ers will be missing their top talent, Joel Embiid, for tomorrow’s game and the rest of the preseason as he works his way back into form following left knee issues. While Embiid won’t be taking the court, there’s still plenty to watch for in this matchup. As with any preseason action, player availability can vary, but the 76ers may still feature Maxey and George in their lineup.
