KEY GAME INFORMATION
BOSTON: General manager Danny Ainge wooed Gordon Hayward away from Utah in free agency only to see him suffer a broken fibula and dislocated ankle on a play less than six minutes into a season-opening loss at Cleveland. All eyes will now be on Kyrie Irving, who was acquired in a blockbuster trade with the Cavaliers that sent Isaiah Thomas to Cleveland. On paper it is an upgrade at point guard, adding a dynamic scorer who can create his own shot. While Boston has plenty of talent, there are also questions that need to be answered. Rebounding is a big one, and another is how exactly how this new 'position-less' starting five will fare on the defensive end. Some combination of Marcus Smart, Terry Rozier and rookie Semi Ojeleye are expected to be more involved than initially planned in an effort to fill the void created by Hayward's injury. The Celtics are set up for the future with Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, but it's unclear if this group as constituted has enough firepower to dethrone the Cleveland as East champions.
PHILADELPHIA: The Sixers haven't made the playoffs since 2012 but they have a legitimate chance to break that streak should Ben Simmons and rookie Markelle Fultz be able to produce and Joel Embiid find a way to remain healthy and productive. Philadelphia has two No. 3 overall picks in Embiid and Jahlil Okafor and two No. 1s in Simmons and Fultz to show for five losing seasons. Embiid, who has played only 31 games in three years and has yet to show he's durable enough to last a full season, will play under the expectation of the $148 million contract extension signed shortly before the season. He is clearly a difference maker and his health could ultimately determine whether the Sixers contend for a playoff spot or spend another year in the draft lottery.
PREVIEW
Hayward injury hovers over Celtics with Sixers on tap
 

The new-look Boston Celtics will be seeking their first victory of the season when they visit the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night.

It figures to take far longer for the Celtics to discover their identity than what they expected during the offseason.

Boston, having already undergone an extensive off-season makeover, lost one of its new acquisitions, forward Gordon Hayward, to a gruesome leg injury a little over five minutes into Tuesday night's season-opening 102-99 loss in Cleveland.

Hayward, who signed a four-year, $128 million free-agent contract with the Celtics in July, suffered a dislocated left ankle and fractured tibia and underwent surgery on Wednesday. His agent, Mark Bartelstein, told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Hayward is unlikely to return this season.

That is an enormous blow to the Celtics, who harbored hopes of unseating the Cavaliers as Eastern Conference champions after bringing in not only Hayward, formerly of the Utah Jazz, but All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving in a trade with Cleveland.

In all, Boston returned just four players from last year's team, which finished with the East's best regular-season record but bowed out to the Cavs in the conference finals.

Now the Celtics have been forced to reshuffle the deck. Coach Brad Stevens dug deep into his bench in Wednesday's home opener against Milwaukee, but Boston fell to 0-2 with a 108-100 loss.

"I'm hopeful that we can find the right combinations," Stevens told the Boston Globe. "Obviously, we didn't anticipate going maybe this far in the bench this early. I thought some of those guys did a pretty good job. The part that we've got to find is the combination that works all together. Especially when we go to the bench. We'll find it."

The Sixers will be staging their home opener, after beginning the season with a 120-115 loss in Washington on Wednesday night. That game marked the debuts of guard/forward Ben Simmons and guard Markelle Fultz, the top picks in each of the last two drafts.

Simmons, who missed all of last season with a broken foot, finished with 18 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and just a single turnover, and told reporters afterward it "felt like (he) was playing (NBA) 2K," a popular video game.

Fultz scored 10 points off the bench.

Robert Covington notched 29 points to pace the Sixers, and center Joel Embiid, playing his first game since suffering a knee injury last January, generated 18 points and 13 rebounds while playing nearly 27 minutes.

Embiid, who appeared in just 31 games as a rookie in 2016-17, reacted angrily when told by reporters after Tuesday's practice he would be on a minutes restriction. He told Philly.com Wednesday that that limit was 16 or 17 minutes, while Sixers coach Brett Brown told reporters it would be no more than 20.

According to Philly.com, Embiid lobbied for more.

"They listened to me," Embiid said. "That's the partnership you got to have. You got to understand each other. They got to listen to me. I got to listen to what they have to say and work on that.

"But I was happy and excited. Hopefully (the minutes) keep going on up."
