Things to Watch for:

• Double fake revenge game: Nik Stauskas (who won’t play much if at all) is facing his former team in the Kings, and former Process champion JaKarr Sampson would face off against the Sixers for the 2nd time in his career, if he wasn’t currently assigned to the G-League.
• Furkan Korkmaz is back with the team after a short G-League stint, but it’s unlikely he’ll make his NBA regular season debut tonight barring some serious foul trouble or injury.
• Joel Embiid also rejoins the team after a day off for “load management” and is expected to start.
