This is a front end of a back-to-back; Sixers host Milwaukee on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Adam Aaronson (@SixersAdam) January 25, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n The Sixers will play host to the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night, and while both Embiid and George are in the midst of their healthiest and most productive stretches of play across the last two seasons, the expectation is for neither play in both legs of back-to-backs right now. The Sixers appear to be saving both players for Tuesday’s game.<\/p>\n Sixers-Hornets, initially scheduled to tip off at 7:00 p.m., was moved up to a 3:00 p.m. start because of weather concerns, the NBA announced on Sunday afternoon. It should afford the Sixers more time to get home in time for their game against Milwaukee.<\/p>\n MORE:\u00a0How do you fit alongside Embiid?
