Sixers vs. Nets game preview: Lineups, how to watch, broadcast info
The Philadelphia 76ers will finish up the 2022-23 regular season when they take on the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place. The Sixers are sitting at 53-28 and will look to finish the season on the right note before the playoffs begin.
The Sixers will face these same Nets in Game 1 of the playoffs the following weekend so one has to figure that neither team will play any of their regulars. Philadelphia will throw out a lineup featuring Jalen McDaniels, Jaden Springer, Mac McClung, and others in this meaningless game. The Nets will do the same with their younger players to prepare for the postseason.
Here’s when and where you should tune in to see the matchup:
