Philadelphia 76ers and Washington Wizards will play again today, June 2, at 7:00 pm (ET) at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia for the first round of the 2020/21 NBA playoffs. Here, you’ll find all the match information, predictions, odds, and how to watch the game.
The Philadelphia 76ers misseda chance to close out the series and sweep the Washington Wizards on the road, mostly because Ben Simmons got into foul trouble and Joel Embiid had to leave early with a knee injury.
Now, the Washington Wizards will look to ride that momentum as they visit the City of Brotherly Love for a must-win Game 5, which will be easier said than done given the Sixers’ dominance at home.

Philadelphia 76ers vs Washington Wizards: Storylines
The Philadelphia 76ers lost just 7 games at home this season, so that clearly doesn’t favor the Washington Wizards’ case for Game 5. However, they’re just not the same team without Joel Embiid, and there’s a big chance the big man can’t suit up for this potential series-clinching matchup.
Scott Brooks’ team jumped to a big lead in the second half of Game 4 before rookie guard Tyrese Maxey took the Sixers’ offense to a whole new level, but they could still manage to execute down the stretch and get a win, also thanks to their ‘Hack-A-Simmons’ strategy. Ben Simmons is shooting under 25% from the free-throw line in this series so we may see them intentionally foul him again in Game 5.
