Tyrese Maxey earns starting spot in 2026 All-Star game
This afternoon, the NBA announced its 2026 All-Star starters, and on Feb. 15, a very deserving Sixer will be on the court for the opening tip in Los Angeles. This will be Tyrese Maxey’s first All-Star starting appearance, after previously making the team as a reserve in 2024. Through 38 games, Maxey has averaged 30.3 […]
Home cooking has not agreed with the Sixers this season
The scene in the home locker room was not an unusual one after the Sixers fell to Cleveland on Friday night, 117-115. Reporters milled about the center of the oval-shaped room. Attendants, dressed all in black, scurried here and there, cleaning up after the players. Veteran guard Eric Gordon, who did not play for the 34th […]
Sixers need to capitalize on matchup against struggling Pacers

Cleveland has now passed Philly in the Eastern Conference standings, overtaking them into […]
Joel Embiid, Paul George questionable for Sixers-Pacers, McCain doubtful after G-League assignment
Unlike their last back-to-back, this one could actually have matchups factored into decisions here. The Sixers released their injury report ahead of their home contest against the Indiana Pacers Monday. Nothing on it is too shocking with Joel Embiid and Paul George both listed as questionable with left knee injury management. Despite it being a […]
Jared McCain assigned to Delaware Blue Coats
Jared McCain has not played more than 11 minutes in a game since Jan. 5.

On Saturday afternoon, the Philadelphia 76ers arrived […]
When it rains, it pours this year in Philadelphia sports
This city can handle frustrating roster-building moves, and it can certainly handle losing. The constant barrage it’s come in this fall and winter is quite a lot to process.

As trade deadline nears, Sixers find themselves in a tricky spot
Even with their dispiriting loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers Wednesday night, the Sixers sit at 22-17, good for fifth in the East.

Sixers host Cleveland Cavaliers to kick off another two game mini-series

Joel Embiid’s reemergence is one of the best stories of the NBA season
On Monday night in Toronto, Joel Embiid was in the lineup for the 20th time this season. It’s the middle of January and the former MVP has already played more games than he did in all of 2024-25. While playing this many games is an accomplishment in and of itself, the level of Embiid’s play […]
Nick Nurse has a complicated relationship with his frontcourt
The last two games for the Philadelphia 76ers have summed up their season in some ways. Both were against the Toronto Raptors.
