The Philadelphia 76ers will take on the Miami Heat on Sunday afternoon after two days off following Thursday’s win over the Milwaukee Bucks on the road. The Sixers received a big effort by Tyrese Maxey as he scored a career-high 54 points on the road to lead Philadelphia to the win.
As far as the injury report is concerned, the Sixers will continue to miss Kelly Oubre Jr. (left knee sprain) as he continues to recover from his LCL sprain.
