The Philadelphia 76ers (9-3) will welcome the Toronto Raptors (5-6) on Thursday for Military Appreciation Night, presented by Toyota. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. EST at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
The Sixers fell to the Celtics, 123-101, Tuesday at home. Boston made 22 3-pointers, six of which came from Paul George, who scored a game-high 36 points. Tyrese Maxey led the Sixers with 24 points in 33 minutes.
The Raptors also last played the Celtics, losing 98-93 on Wednesday after Boston scored the game’s final eight points. Jayson Tatum scored 24 points in the absence of Paul George, who was sidelined by illness on the second night of a back-to-back. Scottie Barnes (left groin strain) and Kawhi Leonard (left knee injury management) remained out.
Toronto reacquired Kawhi Leonard in an offseason trade that sent Brandon Ingram and Gradey Dick to the LA Clippers, but Leonard has appeared in only two games this season.
Here are the RAV4 Things to Know ahead of Thursday’s game:
Military Appreciation Night, presented by Toyota, will celebrate more than 500 active and retired servicemen and women with tickets to the game courtesy of Toyota.
The first 5,000 fans in attendance for Military Appreciation Night will receive a 76ers camo baseball cap, presented by Toyota.
The Raptors will be on the second night of a back-to-back after a 98-93 loss to the Celtics on Wednesday in Toronto.
Both teams are scheduled to wear their Icon Edition uniforms, meaning the Sixers will be in blue and the Raptors will be in red.
