The Philadelphia 76ers are set to return to South Philly on Wednesday night. Lately, the Sixers have been on quite the hot streak. Coming off of one of their most disappointing losses of the year in late December, the Sixers got back on the right track when they fired up a three-game road trip beginning in Washington D.C.

After taking down the Wizards during a Sunday night matchup, the Sixers traveled up North to face the Toronto Raptors on the road. Despite having a rough history playing in Toronto, the Sixers found success and picked up their second-straight win.

Before closing out 2021, the 76ers wrapped up their three-game road trip with a victory over the Brooklyn Nets. Then, they opened up the new year with a game at home against the Houston Rockets. As expected, the Sixers made it four in a row after taking down the Rockets.

Following their win over Houston, the Sixers traveled to Florida to face the Orlando Magic. While a young Magic team played the 76ers tough, the more experienced team won last Wednesday. Going back home with a five-game win streak, the Sixers tied their season-high win streak with a victory over the San Antonio Spurs last Friday.

On Monday, the Sixers hit the road once again. As they faced the Rockets for the second time in a week, the 76ers found similar results as their first matchup as they picked up another big win when in Houston. Now, the Sixers are home and attempting to make it eight in a row against the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night.
