The Sixers avoid a complete late-game collapse, holding on and beating the Jazz here tonight after the last minute took an hour. Strong nights for Lonnie Walker IV, Adem Bona, Alex Reese, Quentin Grimes, Jeff Dowtin Jr. and Jared Butler. Story on the way, you know the drill. pic.x.com/9qLOBlTAF4 – 10:00 PM

The Sixers have made an addition to their injury report for tonight’s game vs. Utah:
Andre Drummond — illness — QUESTIONABLE
Drummond didn’t practice yesterday because he was sick, but wasn’t listed on the initial injury report. If he doesn’t play, Lonnie Walker IV could start. – 1:33 PM

Adam Aaronson: Nick Nurse says Lonnie Walker IV will play tonight and see how comfortable he looks. “A stint or two, for sure.” -via Bluesky / February 22, 2025
After his experience in Lithuania, Walker sounded confident in his ability to adapt to anything. “It was honestly one of the more important parts of my young adult life,” he said. “Being so far from home, you have a lot of time of solitude, a lot of time of just looking at yourself in the mirror and holding yourself accountable. I’ve been given an opportunity to look at my flaws, hold myself accountable and understand what I’m trying to grow and become as an individual. “I put myself in a very uncomfortable situation just to become a better man on and off the court. I learned a ton. I grew from it, got better. I think it was very important for me to go through all of that.” -via NBC Sports Philadelphia / February 21, 2025
