PHILADELPHIA, PA 

by Max Rappaport

• The Sixers announced tonight that big man Kwame Brown will start tonight in place of center Lavoy Allen. Brown has missed the team's last four games with a strained left calf.

• Tuesday, Collins indicated that rookie big man Arnett Moultrie, who has been a healthy scratch in four of the Sixers' seven games thus far, could see his role in the offense become more consistent. "I'm going to have to start letting Arnett [Moultrie] get out there and get some minutes," said Collins.
