*Sixers Opener (Joel Embiid‘s Debut)

Oklahoma City Thunder @ Philadelphia 76ers – Oct. 26th

There’s a contingency with this game. Assuming that Joel Embiid is cleared to play this season, you’re going to want to catch the Philadelphia 76ers, whenever that is. Hopefully, it’ll be on opening night.

If that is the case, not only will you be able to watch Embiid’s long-awaited NBA debut but you’ll also be able to catch Ben Simmons‘ first game too – two “rookies” that should be followed throughout the 2016-17 season.

In the past, I would never advise to watch anything Sixers basketball related. However, that will drastically change this season if Embiid and Simmons are going to be healthy. Perhaps this team can be…sneaky good?
