Watch 76ers vs. Pelicans: How to live stream, TV channel, start time for Tuesday’s NBA game

Through 3 Quarters

The last time the New Orleans Pelicans and the Philadelphia 76ers met, the matchup was decided by 20 points, but it sure doesn’t look like the final will end up so one-sided this time. Philadelphia and New Orleans are deadlocked at 86-86 after three quarters, promising an exciting conclusion. The 76ers have been riding high on the performance of center Joel Embiid, who has dropped a double-double on 30 points and 11 boards along with two blocks.

Embiid has led the way so far for Philadelphia, as he has posted a double-double on 30 points and 11 rebounds in addition to two blocks. The contest made it Embiid’s sixth in a row with at least 30 points.

Philadelphia and New Orleans came into this game with previous-game wins. After we’ll see if Philadelphia has enough left in the tank to claim the win or if the Pelicans will come out on top yet again.

What to Know

The New Orleans Pelicans might have tired legs after a contest yesterday as they head on the road against the Philadelphia 76ers at 7 p.m. ET Jan. 25 at Wells Fargo Center. Both teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

New Orleans sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 117-113 win over the Indiana Pacers on Monday. The Pelicans can attribute much of their success to point guard Devonte’ Graham, who shot 5-for-9 from downtown and finished with 25 points and six assists.

Meanwhile, Philadelphia didn’t have too much breathing room in their game with the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday, but they still walked away with a 115-109 victory. It was another big night for the Sixers’ center Joel Embiid, who dropped a double-double on 38 points and 12 boards along with six dimes. Embiid’s night made it five games in a row in which he has scored at least 32 points.

New Orleans is the clear underdog, so they’re hoping it’s the size of the fight that determines this one. The smart bettors have been the ones to keep their money on New Orleans’ opponents whenever they hit the road.

New Orleans found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 117-97 punch to the gut against Philadelphia in the teams’ previous meeting last October. Can the Pelicans avenge their defeat, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We’ll soon find out.
