Sixers vs. Magic game preview: Lineups, how to watch, broadcast info
The Philadelphia 76ers will finish up the season series with the Orlando Magic on Wednesday at home, and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place. The Sixers will be looking to bounce back from Monday’s loss to the Magic and get back on track.
In order to do so, they will have to be much better on the defensive end. Magic rookie Paolo Banchero was terrific in the second half on Monday and Philadelphia wasn’t able to find a way to stop him. The Sixers will need Joel Embiid to lead the effort on Wednesday and be sure that Philadelphia gets back in the win column following a disappointing loss where they saw a 21-point lead slip away.
