The Sixers, who defeated Charlotte in a thriller on Tuesday night, will be back in action Wednesday against the Orlando Magic, who will stick around for a Friday night battle, too. Then, an extremely light stretch ensues for the Sixers, who will only play three games in a 12-day span:

- Dec. 8 @ CHI
- Dec. 13 vs. IND
- Dec. 16 @ CHA
They'll have a stretch in which they play 3 games in 12 days. Next game after that road Charlotte game not until Dec. 20... vs. Charlotte at home.
Currently sitting at 5-14, the Sixers must do everything in their power to reestablish their chances of earning a playoff berth in a rudderless Eastern Conference.
