76ers vs. Raptors preview

The 76ers and Raptors are going right back to the scene of the bloodbath from the first game of the two-game set between the two teams. Things are expected to be different in this game with the potential of both Joel Embiid and Paul George being available for the Sixers. Neither All-Star participated in last night's game, so it should change the dynamic between the two teams.

The Raptors will still have to be dealing with Sixers point guard Tyrese Maxey who had 38 points on 13 of 27 shooting against the Raptors. Rookie guard VJ Edgecombe will also be someone to look out for. He scored 17 points for the Sixers, including a very clutch three-pointer late in the game.

The Raptors will respond with the potential return of Brandon Ingram, who is questionable with a thumb injury. He is expected to be joined by Scottie Barnes, who scored 31 points, including the game-winning free throw against the Sixers. The Raptors should also have a combination of Collin Murray Boyles, Immanuel Quigley, and Elijah Martin, all of whom shined against the 76ers.
