The Philadelphia 76ers still without Joel Embiid and Paul George, host the winless Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night.
The Philadelphia 76ers (1-2) picked up their first win of the season on Sunday and look to get to .500 for the first time on Wednesday night when they host the Detroit Pistons (0-4) at Wells Fargo Center. But Philadelphia will again be without Joel Embiid (knee) and Paul George (knee), as neither superstar has yet to play this season. The Pistons dropped their fifth straight game, dating back to last season, on the road against the Miami Heat on Monday. Detroit is on its third coach in three seasons, with former Cleveland Cavaliers boss J.B. Bickerstaff now in the lead chair.
