76ers vs. Timberwolves: How to Watch, Live Stream & Odds for Friday /

The Philadelphia 76ers are set to return to the floor on Friday night. After getting over a week off for the All-Star break, the Sixers will resume the final stretch of the 2021-2022 season with another matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

For the first time since their blockbuster trade, James Harden will make his Sixers debut. When Philadelphia snagged the ten-time All-Star a few weeks back, Harden was dealing with a hamstring injury. He missed a few games for the Brooklyn Nets as a result.

As Harden was slated to miss his fourth-straight game, the Nets sent the former MVP to Philadelphia with Paul Millsap in exchange for Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Andre Drummond, and draft picks. The Sixers faced the Oklahoma City Thunder, Cleveland Cavaliers, Boston Celtics, and the Milwaukee Bucks before the break -- but Harden remained sidelined.

Finally, on Friday, the ten-time All-Star will make his debut playing alongside Sixers All-Star Joel Embiid. The first time the Sixers faced the Timberwolves, Philadelphia fell short by one point in overtime.
