Sixers vs. Raptors Game 6 preview: How to watch, TV channel, start time

The Philadelphia 76ers and the Toronto Raptors head back to Canada for Game 6 of this first-round series on Thursday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place. The Sixers will attempt to close out the Raptors for the third straight game after going up 3-0.

The Raptors have worked their way back into this series by playing their style of basketball. They have mucked the series up. They have used their length and their size to bother the Sixers. Now they have a chance to force a Game 7. It will be up to Joel Embiid to power through the torn ligament in his right thumb as well as James Harden to ensure the Sixers take care of business.
