Sixers kick off season-defining week against championship contenders

The Philadelphia 76ers will kick off their toughest stretch of the schedule this week, with games against the Oklahoma City Thunder, New York Knicks and Milwaukee Bucks. After having lost five of their last seven games, if Joel Embiid is able to return from his foot sprain, this stretch will give the Sixers a chance to assess where they stand, and whether they should be buyers or sellers, leading up to the February 6 trade deadline. Join the PHLY Sixers team as they break down the upcoming schedule, and react to today’s press conference where Mayor Parker announced the plans for a new arena in South Philadelphia, a joint development between the Sixers and Comcast which will house both the Sixers and the Flyers.
