Sixers Look For First Win Of Season In Milwaukee

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Sixers will play their second road game of the season tonight as they visit the Milwaukee Bucks.

Philadelphia is off to an 0-3 start this season. Last time out they lost at home to Cleveland on Monday, 107-100.

Milwaukee is 1-3 in the early going. They also last played on Monday night when they picked up their first win of the season, beating Brooklyn, 103-96.

This game will feature Milwaukee guard Michael Carter-Williams taking on his old team. The 2013 first-round pick of the 76ers is averaging 12.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6.8 assists a game this season for the Bucks.

The Bucks are also anticipating that forward Jabari Parker will make his 2015-2016 debut in this one. He hasn't played since December of last year when he tore his ACL.

The 76ers won't have the services of forward Robert Covington tonight. He reinjured his knee at practice on Tuesday and didn't make the trip to Milwaukee.

KYW's Matt Leon spoke with Derek Bodner of Philadelphia Magazine about his thoughts on the 76ers through three games this season.
