Want to see the 2018 first round selection in action? Unfortunately for Sixers fans, tonight’s Blue Coats game is an away game — so unless you live in Portland, Maine or can catch a flight there in the next hour, you won’t have the opportunity to see Zhaire in person. However, the Blue Coats games broadcast on Facebook Live, so the stream is easily accessible. The game is scheduled to start at 7:00 pm.

In the wise words of Tom McGinnis: get excited.
