Sixers Look To Stay Strong At Home
The Philadelphia 76ers play host to the Atlanta Hawks at Wells Fargo Center on Monday evening.

The 76ers (35-22) are 5-5 in their last 10 games and are 1-1 since the all-star break. They are coming off a loss in their most recent contest, where they fell short in Milwaukee. They will look to get back on track at home, where they have won 12 straight games and add to their league-best 26-2 home record. Joel Embiid leads the 76ers, averaging 23.1 points, 12.0 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game. Al Horford has been quiet since the all-star break, totaling nine points, 10 rebounds and four assists, over the last two games. Ben Simmons (back) missed the Sixers' last contest and will remain out through Monday's action, while Tobias Harris (knee) is listed as doubtful. The Sixers average 108.5 points per game, and they are holding opponents to an average of 106.4 points per game, which is second fewest in the league.

Meanwhile, the Hawks (17-41) have looked great since the all-star break, with impressive home wins over the Heat and the Mavericks. Trae Young has been amazing since returning to action after his first all-star appearance, with a career-high 50-point performance, followed up by 25 points, 10 assists and six rebounds, in the most recent contest. The Hawks will look to keep the momentum going, however, they have dropped their last three road games and have a 6-24 road record. Young leads the Hawks, averaging 30.0 points and 9.2 assists per game. John Collins has also been a force lately and is averaging 24.6 points, 11.6 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game. Cam Reddish tallied 20 points, six rebounds, three assists and three steals, in the Hawks' most recent contest and is averaging 12.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals, over the last 10 games. The Hawks are shooting a league-worst 32.9 percent from long range and are giving up a league-most 16.0 turnovers per game.
