Reality will kick in for Mavericks fans on Tuesday as Dallas enters the Wargo Wellness Center in Philadelphia without Luka Doncic. The Slovenian, along with Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris, was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for veteran Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 first-round pick. The Mavs are coming off a tough blowout loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and with a 26-24 record, they are looking to start a new era without their superstar with a win.

On the other side, the 76ers are also dealing with their own struggles. The Eastern Conference team is currently 19-29 and has been dealing with injuries all season. Joel Embiid has spent more time off the court than on it, while Paul George has been sidelined with a finger injury. The big question for Philly fans: Will both players be available for this game?
