76ers Clinch Playoff Spot

The Bucks, the Celtics, and now the 76ers have clinched a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Milwaukee and Boston did it on their own, but for Philly, they had the help of the Brooklyn Nets. However, does it really matter how a team gets in as long as they get in?

Fans were counting down the games until the Sixers got the spot, but many didn’t expect the Nets (out of all teams) to help Philly get into the postseason.

Confirmed by the NBA, with the Nets losing tonight, the 76ers have clinched a spot in the 2023 NBA Playoffs.

Also, I guess thank the Cleveland Cavaliers for being the team to beat Brooklyn. The final score was 115-109 where the Nets couldn’t complete the comeback against Donovan Mitchell’s team.

With that being said, here are teams to clinch a spot into the 2023 NBA Playoffs:

Bucks
Celtics
76ers

Denver did clinch their division, however, have not been awarded a playoff spot yet.

The Nets will be making either the playoffs or the Play-In this season, that’s confirmed. However, the Heat and other teams are fighting to get out of the East’s Play-In.

Those teams being the Hawks, Bulls, and Raptors.

But I guess if you’re the Bulls then you are fighting to… https://t.co/ZLTUxGudjt

Joel Embiid (Sinus) Upgraded Questionable For Friday

According to the Philadelphia 76ers, Joel Embiid has been upgraded to questionable for Friday’s game against the Charlotte Hornets.

The plan is for the team to reevaluate the 30-year-old hours before their game on Friday; it would be a quick turnaround. However, he is already progressing, so there is a possibility of him playing.

Embiid suffered a right sinus fracture during their game against the Indiana Pacers on December 13th; Philadelphia said they would reevaluate him a week from then.

Overall, Embiid has only played six games this season. This is mainly due to suspension, this current injury, and looming knee issues.

Joel Embiid Suffers Sinus Fracture; Out At Least A Week

According to the Philadelphia 76ers, they will be without Joel Embiid for at least the next week due to their big man suffering a right sinus fracture.

The injury happened last Friday against the Indiana Pacers, which saw Bennedict Mathurin attempt to grab the rebound; however, upon landing, his arm crashed into the face of the 30-year-old.

Once Embiid went to the locker room, he never returned to the bench.

Embiid has only played in six of the 23 games this season.

According to multiple reports, confirmed by the Philadelphia 76ers, Andre Drummond will be sidelined for the next three games due to suffering a sprained ankle.

The 31-year-old suffered the injury during November 30th’s game against the Detroit Pistons early in the first quarter. After suffering the injury, Drummond was ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Philadelphia will re-evaluate him later this weekend, as they’ll take on the Charlotte Hornets and back-to-back games against the Orlando Magic.

In 17 games this season, Drummond averages 8.1 points and 8.2 rebounds in 20.4 minutes.
