With the All-Star break behind us, two of the best teams in their respective conferences are set to kick off the unofficial second half of the season.
Joel Embiid, James Harden and the 76ers are set to host Ja Morant, Jaren Jackson Jr. and the Grizzlies on Thursday night. Embiid entered All-Star weekend averaging 33.1 points per game, good for second-best in the NBA behind Luka Doncic (33.3). Harden was snubbed as an All-Star despite averaging 21.4 points and a league-leading 10.8 assists per game.
Philly will take a four-game win streak into a tough contest against the second-place Grizzlies. Morant has been his usual electrifying self, averaging 27.3 points and 8.3 assists per game. Jackson is currently the frontrunner to win Defensive Player of the Year, posting 3.3 blocks per game.
Will Jackson Jr. be able to contain Embiid? Can Harden outduel Morant? You can find everything you need to know to tune into this game below.
