Over the past week, the Sixers have been forced to get creative in their lineups due to the contact tracing rules the NBA has put in place. After Seth Curry received a positive Covid test, Tobias Harris, Shake Milton, Matisse Thybulle, and Vincent Poirier were all forced to quarantine away from the team.
On top of this, Ben Simmons suffered a knee injury, Mike Scott was still getting healthy from his knee contusion, and Furkan Korkmaz and Terrance Ferguson each missed time due to personal reasons.
