As things stand, the fans may need to wait longer to witness the involvement of their 30-year-old star. Beal is reportedly still struggling with his lower back spasms, sidelining him for the next away match. Not only the shooting guard, but a few more key players could also miss out on the 76ers’ game.

The face of the organization, Devin Booker, is under doubt after a 31-13-9 show in the last match. He seems to be struggling with his left ankle sprain, possibly paving the way for Eric Gordon to start the game. Alongside that, Damion Lee is out too after undergoing a right meniscus surgery toward the middle of last month.
