Sixers vs. Thunder game preview: Lineups, how to watch, broadcast info
The Philadelphia 76ers will play host to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday looking to pick up another win before heading out on the road for five games, and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place. The Sixers will be looking to sweep the season series with the Thunder after a win on New Year’s Eve.
Philadelphia will also welcome former guard Isaiah Joe back to the Wells Fargo Center. The Sixers waived Joe after two seasons with the team and coach Doc Rivers has kept in contact with the third-year guard out of Arkansas. The Thunder are a scrappy bunch, but the Sixers should be able to handle business led by Joel Embiid in this one.
