The Side Jawn

Who, When, Where:

Magic @ 76ers, 7:00 PM ET at Xfinity Mobile Arena

Who’s In, Who’s Out:

Sixers OUT:

Joel Embiid (left knee – injury management), Paul George (left knee – surgery recovery), Jared McCain (right thumb – surgery recovery), Dominick Barlow (right elbow laceration), Trendon Watford (left hamstring – injury management) per the NBA’s official injury report. 

Magic OUT:

Moritz Wagner (left knee – injury recovery); Jamal Cain and Colin Castleton (not with team). 

Philly is 2–0 to start the season behind Tyrese Maxey and promising rookie minutes from VJ Edgecombe, but they’ll be short-handed tonight. 

Orlando is 1–2 and hitting the road for the first time, and the core runs through Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner.

Theee things I’m watching:

-Maxey vs. Magic roster length

-Rebounds By Committee with Embiid out

-Keep Banchero away from the line.

-Jawn Kruk
