NEW YORK -- The Philadelphia 76ers will take on the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday to continue the preseason schedule and they will roll out the projected starting lineup that everybody is anticipating to see on a nightly basis.
The Sixers will start Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, Joel Embiid, and finally, LeBron James. It's just a preseason matchup and none of these games matter, but James will unofficially make his debut against the Nets in the exhibition and the Sixers will see what they have in this group after a long week of training camp.
James, Embiid, and Maxey sat out of Monday's preseason opener against the New York Knicks on Monday.
