Daily News | Sixers Mailbag: ‘Why is P.J. Tucker still in the starting lineup?’
season hasn’t gone as many folks envisioned. The squad, which entered the season with hopes of winning the Eastern Conference, is in ninth place in the standings through 18 games with a 9-9 record. Some will point to injuries, especially the ailments current facing James Harden, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid, as the reason for their struggles.
The Sixers are in Florida for their two-game series against the struggling Magic . They’ll play the second game 6 p.m. Sunday before traveling home to face the Atlanta Hawks Monday night at the Wells Fargo Center. He’s a solid player who deserves to get more touches. That’s why he and the Sixers would benefit from a trade. The ideal fourth option for this team would be a guy who can defend and is able to make open threes and impact the game without the ball in his hands. Harris is at his best with the ball in his hands.@TonEstradThanks to the straight to the point question, Tone.
Things haven’t looked great so far, and neither has the Embiid and Harden pairing. But folks know the Sixers must let that develop into something once they both return from injury. The same has to be said about Tucker. They have to give him more time to find his groove and get him more involved.
