It’s only preseason, but anytime you win a game by 39 points you’re feeling pretty darn good. That was Brooklyn’s result against the Wizards on Monday, a feeling that might be hard to come by this upcoming season. That’s not here nor there. The Nets play its third preseason game in Philly — let’s see what they got.
TIME: 7:00 p.m. ET
OPPOSITION: Philadelphia 76ers
TUNE IN: YES Network on TV.

From Jordan Greene’s preview:
WHAT: ben Simmons will most likely be in the media’s eye again tonight as he will be going to his former home which transformed his career (first good, then bad.) He played the fewest minutes of any starter vs, Washington, sitting the second half. Expect a little more tonight.
Cam Thomas has been workman-like in his first two games, averaging 14.5 points while shooting 55.5% from the floor and 50.0% from 3-point range (4-for-8) in just 20.5 minutes per game. But as Brian Lewis wrote Wednesday, Jordi Fernandez is happy with other parts of his game as well.
OUT FOR BK: Killian Hayes (hip) Nic Claxton (hamstring) and Keon Johnson (ankle) are officially day-to-day. We’ll learn more on them later. Trendon Watford (hamstring,) Bojan Bogdanovic (foot,) and Day’Ron Sharpe are all out.
OUT FOR PHILA: Paul George (knee) and Joel Embiid (rest).
