The NBA Preseason has now added further chapters to its canon and we have seen riveting contests already. In this match-up, the Philadelphia 76ers is going to encounter Brooklyn Nets. More about PHI vs BKN Dream11 will be given below.
Philadelphia posted a full-fledged lineup in both the Preseason games so far. The team played both the games against Toronto and split the games. With Ben Simmons out of the scene, the team has a little thin guard lineup and it will be interesting if the team makes any move soon to acquire a Point guard to bolster the perimeter scene.
Nets has won both the Preseason games so far. The team is already being hailed as a contender for the championship. It comes as no surprise because the combination of Durant-Irving-Harden can be too much if the team is healthy.
However, the Kyrie Irving situation is highly complicated and the guard can miss virtually more than half of the games due to not being vaccinated The team has a veteran presence in the frontcourt, Blake Griffin, Paul Millsap, James Johnson, and LaMarcus Aldridge will be playing the big seasons. Can the Nets remain healthy this year?

Georges Niang Points: 16 Rebounds: 02 Assists: 03 Steals: 01 Georges is still searching for substantial minutes in the league. Niang can shoot the long ball and can potentially feature in the bench role for the 76ers.
