Sixers vs. Nuggets game preview: How to watch, lineups, broadcast info

Sixers #Sixers

The Philadelphia 76ers will play host to the defending champion Denver Nuggets on Tuesday evening, and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place. The Sixers will be on the second night of a back-to-back following a win over the Houston Rockets on Monday.

Obviously, when it comes to any Sixers-Nuggets matchup, the focus is on the big men. Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic have combined to win the past three MVPs with Jokic winning in 2021 and 2022 while Embiid took home the award in 2023. It is always an entertaining matchup between these two teams as the big men always rise to the occasion against each other.
