Philadelphia 76ers: 5 must-watch games from 2019-20 NBA schedule

The Sixers were among the happiest campers when Kawhi Leonard decided to head back to his rightful home in the West this summer.
But that doesn’t mean they aren’t still seeking some sort of payback on the two-time Finals MVP for handing them a ticket home of their own in last year’s playoffs.
Leonard — who averaged a whopping 34.7 points, 9.8 rebounds and was a plus-5 in 39 minutes played per game against the Sixers during the Eastern Conference semifinals — will be joined by Paul George for the upcoming season.
Even with a healthy Sixers starting five, it’s going to be a challenge trying to beat arguably the league’s best two-way tandem on the road.
In all, a great Sunday test for the team as they enter their last stretch of regular season basketball.
