Every game for the Philadelphia 76ers is important at this stage of the season. Heading into their Monday night matchup against the Atlanta Hawks, the Sixers weren’t sure if they would be facing the star guard Trae Young.

Leading up to the matchup, the Hawks listed Young as questionable due to a left quad contusion. Atlanta officially ruled out Young for the evening, taking some more star power out of the matchup.

For Young, it’s his first absence since the Hawks’ January 27 game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

The Sixers claim to be on a quest for the final Play-In seed in the Eastern Conference. After a win against the Utah Jazz on Sunday night, the Sixers jumped the Brooklyn Nets in the standings. However, they still trail the Chicago Bulls for a Play-In invite.

The Hawks certainly miss a key player with Young out of the mix. Not only is he the top scorer for Atlanta, but he’s currently leading the NBA in assists per game. The veteran is posting averages of 24 points and 12 assists in 60 games. In just four games without Young this year, the Hawks have a 2-2 record.

For those in favor of the Sixers taking the tanking route, the absence of Young could be a bad sign on Monday. Currently, the Sixers are not the owners of their first-round pick of the 2025 NBA Draft. If the season ended on Monday, and the lottery played out exactly as the standings show, the Oklahoma City Thunder would land Philadelphia’s top ten selection.

ATLANTA – Looking to catch the latest soccer match? There’s no better place than in Atlanta.

A sports bar in the city’s Little Five Points neighborhood was just named the best soccer bar in the United States.

What we know:

The Brewhouse Cafe was given the honor by Men in Blazers, the largest soccer-focused media company in North America.

Thousands of bars across the country were nominated in the competition, which was presented by Michelob Ultra. When the 23,000 votes were counted, The Brewhouse took the top spot.

To celebrate, Men in Blazers host Roger Bennett and journalist Rory Smith are planning a live podcast recording at the bar for March 25.

Tickets for the podcast taping have already sold out.

The backstory:

The Brewhouse Cafe opened in 1997 and has continued focusing on soccer and great food for decades.

The pub shows soccer matches from around the world on its 28 large-screen TVs and hosts traditional breakfasts for early matches.

The café is one of the official pub partners of Atlanta United as well.

After a long wait, Season 16 of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” is finally here, and there’s a ton of new ladies for you to get to know.

With two O.G.s back in the game, plus four new housewives, fans can expect lots of drama, big laughs and comfort in familiar faces — including veteran housewife Cynthia Bailey joining as a friend of the show.

While the franchise went through it’s ups and downs following a slew of cast exits and changeups, even former “RHOA” executive producer, Carlos King, said, Season 16 could be one of its best yet.

“I think this is going to be one of the best seasons, for sure. And I’m going to tell you why: Porsha is back, and Porsha is so fun to watch. We get to see the uncovering of what happened in her filing for divorce [from Simon Guobadia] … We get to see that from a force multiplier,” King explained. “And then we get to see Kenya Moore and what happens when she transitions out of the show. And then we get to see these new girls come in.

“And then Cynthia Bailey’s back as a ‘friend of.’ Honey, Phaedra Parks comes in towards the end of the season. There’s so many surprises that are going to happen that I have a very strong feeling it’s going to be a great season. I’m looking forward to seeing ‘Frick and Frack’ coming back.”

There’s a lot to look forward to but until then check out the Season 16 cast of “Real Housewives of Atlanta.”
