The Philadelphia 76ers are playing well at 10-7, despite coming off a loss to the Chicago Bulls on Saturday.
Now, they go into another week with a tough test at home against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The perennial All-Star talent is leading his team in both scoring and rebounding, with 21.7 and 15.3 per game respectively.
