The Philadelphia 76ers will host the Detroit Pistons at Wells Fargo Center on Thursday evening.

The 76ers (2-2) have been grabbing headlines for all the wrong reasons this season, and their performances have not been very good so far since they've won just two of four games so far. They've gone 0-1 at home this season. Philadelphia's most recent game ended in a 112-99 loss against the New York Knicks. Tobias Harris was the Sixers' best player and came close from posting a triple-double of 23 points, nine rebounds and nine assists. Joel Embiid had 14 points, and Danny Green contributed 12 points. Georges Niang contributed 13 points coming off the bench as well. The Sixers shot 43.9 percent from the field and a meager 29.3 percent from three-point range in that loss.

The Pistons (0-3) are still winless and are paying the price of being one of the youngest teams in the NBA this season, though these struggles were widely expected considering their lack of experience in The Association. It's worth noting the Pistons have gone 0-2 playing on the road this season. Detroit's most recent game ended in a 122-104 loss against the Atlanta Hawks. Kelly Olynyk and Saddiq Bey led the Pistons in this one as each ended with 21 points -- while Olynyk also added six rebounds, four assists and three steals, Bey also contributed seven boards and three dimes. Josh Jackson had 18 points, and Isaiah Stewart added 13 points with seven rebounds. Killian Hayes had 12 points and added three assists. The Pistons shot 44 percent from the field and 27.3 percent from three-point range in that loss.
