Spurs Aim for Consecutive Wins Against Injured 76ers

The San Antonio Spurs are seeking their first consecutive wins since January as they host the struggling Philadelphia 76ers. Following a recent victory over the New York Knicks, where Sandro Mamukelashvili scored a career-high 34 points, the Spurs aim to strengthen their playoff hopes while sitting just three games behind the final Western Conference play-in spot. In contrast, the 76ers have struggled immensely, losing five of their last six games, including a 133-100 defeat to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Both teams are facing significant injury challenges, with the 76ers missing key players like Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, while the Spurs have also lost Victor Wembanyama and De’Aaron Fox for the season. Despite the odds, the Spurs are favored to win, which has been a rare occurrence this season. A victory for San Antonio could provide much-needed momentum in the final stretch of the season.
