DETROIT — Could the 76ers have a vaccination problem that limits them in a potential playoff series with the Toronto Raptors?
The Sixers declined to comment when asked this week by ESPN if all their players are fully vaccinated. Asked by The Inquirer before Thursday’s shootaround, Doc Rivers responded, “We don’t talk about it.”
The Sixers coach was reminded that the rhetoric at the start of the season was that all but two of his players were vaccinated. One of those players was Ben Simmons, who has since been vaccinated and traded to the Brooklyn Nets in a package for James Harden and Paul Millsap, who are fully vaccinated.
