76ers Tangle With Fast-Paced Hawks
The Philadelphia 76ers take on the Atlanta Hawks at State Farm Arena on Wednesday night.

The 76ers (49-28) essentially are locked into the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference, and they'll come into Wednesday's game having dropped three of their past five games. One of those defeats came in their most recent time on the court, when they dropped a 122-102 decision on Monday night. J.J. Redick led the way with 26 points and added five rebounds, one assist and one steal. Tobias Harris posted 25 points, six rebounds, three assists and one block. Ben Simmons contributed 17 points, seven rebounds, five assists and three blocks. T.J. McConnell led the bench with 15 points.

The 76ers will list Butler (back) as questionable for Wednesday's game. Joel Embiid (rest) will remain out.

The Hawks (28-50) come into Wednesday's game showing off some of the impressive play that's defined much of the latter portion of their season, as they've won four of the last six contests. However, one of their two losses over that span came versus the San Antonio Spurs by a 117-111 score on Tuesday night. Kent Bazemore led the way for the Hawks with 26 points, adding four rebounds, two assists and three steals. Alex Len contributed 21 points, five rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block. Trae Young produced 15 points, six assists, one rebound and one steal. Kyle Huerter poured in 13 points.

The Hawks will likely list Taurean Prince (foot), Alex Poythress (ankle) and John Collins (rest) as questionable for Wednesday's game. Omari Spellman (ankle) remains out.

Wednesday's game marks the fourth and final meeting between the teams this season. The Hawks hold a 2-1 series lead, having notched 123-121 and 129-127 wins on Jan. 11 and March 23, respectively.
