Philadelphia 76ers
Joel Embiid will be out for at least one week before his knee is re-evaluated. That stretch began with a narrow win over Miami at home but the Sixers lost on Saturday vs. Portland.
The Trail Blazers got double-digits scoring from seven different players, including Enes Kanter for the second consecutive game. Jusuf Nurkic led all of them with 24 points, 10 rebounds and four assists. He also got under Ben Simmons’ skin talking trash when Simmons was at the free throw line.

Simmons had 29 to lead Philadelphia, with 10 assists and seven boards. Jimmy Butler had a quiet 15 and Tobias Harris netted 20 with eight rebounds, though he didn’t record a single assist.

Philadelphia has a depth problem with Embiid out. Mike Scott had to play 30 minutes off the bench and he just isn’t a guy who has been asked to do that in quite a while. He scored 15 points but he’s hit-or-miss on the offensive end and doesn’t play very good defense, at least not for 30 minutes in a game.
New Orleans Pelicans
The Pelicans, meanwhile, continued spoiling nights for teams that are in it to make the playoffs. Anthony Davis didn’t play against the Lakers on Saturday night but New Orleans still won by double-digits at home, 128–115.
Jrue Holiday led the scoring with 27 points and seven dimes; Julius Randle had 24 points; and four other guys reached double-figures, including Cheick Diallo off the bench, who went for 18 and 10 in just 19 minutes of action.

The Pelicans are suddenly tough. They don’t have much talent at all but they have a group of young and hungry players who feel disrespected through all of this Anthony Davis drama. They are getting a chance to play and responding by playing hard and playing well.
Kenrich Williams started and had another big game on Saturday with 11 points, seven rebounds and five assists. Jahlil Okafor started again and he’ll likely again on Monday against his former team.

Free Philadelphia 76ers vs. New Orleans Pelicans NBA Prediction: I’m backing New Orleans.
We’ll probably get some points at home. I just like the attitude the Pels are playing with and Okafor out for some revenge against his former club, without Embiid.
