Game Preview
On January 22, the San Antonio Spurs (8-34) take on the Philadelphia 76ers (28-13) at Wells Fargo Center.
In their last game, San Antonio won their 8th game of the year after completely surprising Washington. In the last 5 minutes of play, the Spurs overcame a 12-point deficit thanks to 24 points and 8 rebounds from Victor Wembanyama, who made his comeback following a 1-game absence. Guard Tre Jones finished with 11 points, 12 assists, and 8 rebounds, almost achieving a triple-double. Wembanyama, who has been limited in playing time, contributed 28 minutes versus the Wizards, particularly crucial late-game plays. With 19.9 points and 10.1 rebounds per match, he leads the club. Devin Vassell contributes 17.8 points as well. Zach Collins is one of 3 players on the San Antonio Spurs’ injury report; he is classified as questionable. It is anticipated that head coach Gregg Popovich will stick with his current starting lineup.
This month, Philadelphia had a difficult start as it dropped 3 of its first 4 games; however, it has since rebounded with a 5-game winning run. Prior to defeating the Magic and Hornets on the road during the weekend, the 76ers won a 3-game homestand against the Kings and Nuggets. Joel Embiid, the reigning MVP, recorded a double-double with 33 points and 10 rebounds, going 20 games without scoring less than 30 points. The 76ers are currently in 3rd spot in the Eastern Conference rankings, despite competing without Embiid for 10 matches. In their last game, they were without a number of crucial essential players, but Tyrese Maxey tallied 16 points and Tobias Harris contributed 21. For this match, De’Anthony Melton (back) is inactive.
In the all-time series, the Spurs have the advantage 59-44. Nevertheless, the Sixers have been dominant lately with 8 victories in their previous ten matches versus San Antonio.
