Sixers to also be without Shake Milton vs. Pacers due to right knee
The Philadelphia 76ers are beginning the final week of the season with a road matchup with the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday and they are doing so while being so shorthanded.
They entered the game already knowing they will be without key bench pieces Furkan Korkmaz and Matisse Thybulle and then they found out that they will be without star big man Joel Embiid as well. Those are three main pieces on the roster that have been a huge part of their success.
Now, they found out in the first quarter that they will also be without another key piece in Shake Milton who is one of their main scorers off the bench. He will miss the game due to right knee soreness.
Shake Milton is a late scratch. He has right knee soreness and he’s out tonight. #Sixers

If the Sixers can get a win in Indiana on Tuesday, they will officially clinch the No. 1 seed in the East and will have home-court advantage. They will have to have others step up in this game.
