Sixers vs. Trail Blazers preview: Lineups, how to watch, broadcast info
The Philadelphia 76ers visit the Pacific Northwest on Thursday when they take on the Portland Trail Blazers, and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place. This will be the fourth of a five-game road trip for the Sixers.
The Blazers offer perimeter challenges. Damian Lillard and Anfernee Simons are the guards, and Jerami Grant is the third scorer. The Sixers will certainly have their hands full with those three. However, the Blazers will have to find a way to stop Joel Embiid, James Harden and Tobias Harris before Tyrese Maxey comes off the bench. This should be an entertaining matchup.
Here’s when and where you should tune in to see the matchup:
