The Detroit Pistons will be facing an undermanned, undersized edition of the Philadelphia 76ers tonight at Little Caesars Arena. The Sixers injury situation is gruesome. Not only are Tyrese Maxey, Paul George, and Kelly Oubre out, but they are without the following big men \u2014 Joel Embiid, Adem Bona, Andre Drummond, and Johni Broome. \u201cWho do they have left to play center,\u201d you might be asking yourself. Well, I\u2019m asking myself that, too, and I\u2019m not really sure what the answer is. The only player they have taller than 6-foot-8 is Dominick Barlow, who has that beaten by one inch. Trendon Watford and Jabari Walker are their only other pseudo big men available, and they also have to manage 48 minutes at power forward somehow. Jalen Duren, who grew up in Pennsylvania and played high school ball in Philly, come on down. Paul Reed, who was waived by the Sixers and claimed by the Pistons a couple of years ago, it\u2019s your time to shine. Let\u2019s not let this winnable game slip away.<\/p>\n
