Great road win for Sixers. Opposite for Kings at home with no Embiid or Harden in action. – 12:48 AM

As expected the Eagles beat the hell outta the Giants and their Super Bowl hopes are looking very promising… but Doc Rivers is coaching his ass right now and the 76ers grabbed a nice road win tonight against the Kings with no Embiid or Harden!!!! Carry the hell on… – 12:46 AM

Sabonis got the triple-double but what a comeback for 76ers without Embiid/Harden
Another example of a team playing without their stars and not losing a game because of it – 12:43 AM

No Embiid and no Harden? No problem. Sacramento looked worn out after playing last night and Philly took advantage with a 129-127 win. Here are 6 quick thoughts as the Kings’ 6 game win streak ends. – 12:39 AM

That’s an incredible Sixers win. A 5-0 road trip finished off against the No. 3 team in the West, without Joel Embiid and James Harden. – 12:39 AM

Just an incredible, improbable comeback down 21 in Sacramento by the Sixers without Harden or Embiid. Maxey was amazing. (The Refs were not). – 12:38 AM

Sixers escape Sacramento with a 129-127 win without Embiid and Harden to close out a 5-0 road trip. 32 from Maxey, six double-digit scorers total for Philly.
Dug deep for that one in the second half. Sixers now head home sitting 2nd in the East, one full game ahead of the Bucks. – 12:37 AM

Heck of a win for the Sixers, without Joel Embiid or James Harden, to win in Sacramento to go 5-0 on this West Coast trip. Philly is now alone in second in the East. – 12:37 AM

If they can close this one out, this would arguably be their best win of the year. No Embiid, no Harden, on the road, final game of the road trip with home just around the corner, and they were down 21 to a very good Kings team. Philly up 114-108 with 6:29 left. #Sixers – 12:13 AM

The Sixers — down by as many as 21 in the second quarter, playing without Embiid and Harden — are heading into the fourth with a six-point lead in Sacramento.
17 third-quarter points for Tyrese Maxey led the way – 11:53 PM

James Harden (right foot injury management) and Joel Embiid (left foot injury recovery) are both questionable for tonight’s Kings vs. 76ers matchup. Kings injury report is clean. Both Neemias Queta and Keon Ellis are back with Stockton. – 4:01 PM

More on this storyline
Keith Pompey: James Harden was not at shootaround. He remains questionable for tonight’s game. -via Twitter @PompeyOnSixers / January 21, 2023
At this point, it looks like Harden is headed for a night off on Saturday when the Sixers take on the Sacramento Kings. He’s popped up on the injury report and has officially been listed as questionable to play with a right foot tendon strain. The Sixers have also indicated “injury management” which more often than not, simply means a simple night off. Harden doesn’t seem to be dealing with a concerning injury, but the odds of him suiting up for Saturday against the Kings has decreased significantly. -via Clutch Points / January 21, 2023
