SAN FRANCISCO — Seth Curry will miss his third consecutive game because of a sprained left ankle when the 76ers face the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night at the Chase Center.

The shooting guard hasn’t played since suffering the injury in last Wednesday’s home loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.

As a result, the Sixers (30-13) will be without at least two starters for the third straight game. Joel Embiid will miss his sixth straight game with a bone bruise in his left knee. Ben Simmons (sore left knee) joined Embiid and Curry as sidelined starters in Saturday’s victory over the Sacramento Kings.

But on Tuesday, the Warriors (22-21) will be without Curry’s older brother and two-time league MVP Stephen Curry. He’ll miss his third straight game because of a tailbone contusion. The Warriors are also without Klay Thompson (right Achilles tendon repair) and Marquese Chriss (fractured fibula). Thompson has been sidelined all season.

Also for Golden State, James Wiseman and former Villanova standout Eric Paschall are listed as probable because of the league’s health and safety protocols.
