We now know who the Sixers will play in the first round of the NBA playoffs. The Sixers finished up their season with a 118-106 victory but ended up locking up the 4 seed and will play the 5th seeded Toronto Raptors. While we don't know the schedule for the entire series, we know that game 1 will be this Saturday at 6pm right here in Philadelphia.

The Sixers went 1-3 against the Raptors in the regular season, and will be without Matisse Thybulle for all the games held in Toronto because of vaccine mandates in Toronto. When the rest of the schedule comes out we will let you know, and every game can be heard right here on 97.5 the Fanatic!
