Paul George, Guerschon Yabusele status vs Pacers
While the Sixers can be a dangerous team when healthy, injuries have led to a lack of chemistry. They have used 24 different starting lineups through their first 39 games.
Due to the Al Horford trade from 2020, the Sixers owe a top-6 protected pick to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Sixers are the eighth-worst team in the NBA record-wise at 15-24. There may not be a trade that can swing their playoff chances, but there could be a move that saves the Sixers from giving up their pick to the Thunder.

Yabusele has been helping shoulder the load in the paint for the 76ers with Embiid (knee) and Drummond (toe) on the mend. Even though Drummond may return Saturday against Indiana, the French import might not be able to bolster the frontcourt against Myles Turner and company on the road.
As the Sixers fall to 15-25 with the trade deadline nearing, the team's brass has some major decisions to make.
The Sixers dropped their fifth consecutive game and dipped to 10 games under .500 on Saturday night in Indiana. With a 115-102 loss to the Pacers, the Sixers now sit at 15-25. They’ll reach the season’s halfway point Sunday when they visit the Bucks.
Throughout a season full of disappointment, the Philadelphia 76ers haven’t had much to be satisfied with so far. However, the veteran frontcourt player Guerscho
Pascal Siakam scored 21 points and Myles Turner posted 18 points and 11 rebounds to lead the Pacers to a 115-102 win over the 76ers
With Aaron Nesmith back and 11 players good enough to be part of the Pacers' rotation, playing time will be less constant.
The Pacers host the Philadelphia 76ers in NBA action on 1/18/25. Here are live score updates, stats, schedule and highlights.
