Preview: Joel Embiid’s Atlanta debut looms large as Philadelphia comes to town

The end of the season brings no favors to the Atlanta Hawks, as they’ll take on their third straight playoff team in the friendly confines of State Farm Arena on Saturday evening. The Philadelphia 76ers come to town for the first of two visits in the final nine games of the year and will not be waltzing into an easy victory after the Hawks took down the Utah Jazz in dramatic fashion on Thursday.

So far, Atlanta and Philadelphia have split their season series, with each team winning a game in the 76ers’ Wells Fargo Center.
