Paul George said he feels good and wants to play every game to close the regular season
The returns of Joel Embiid and Paul George to the Sixers’ lineup could not have gone better. The two combined to account for 63 of the 157 points they hung on the Chicago Bulls, the most the team has scored in a game in 56 years. While Embiid was on fire right out of the […]
5 draft prospects to keep an eye on in the Sweet 16
The Sixers will have a first-round draft pick this summer courtesy of the Jared McCain trade with the Oklahoma City Thunder. That pick comes via the Houston Rockets and should land somewhere in the 20s. With that in mind, when you’re watching the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament beginning on Thursday night, here are […]
The Sixers are pulling me back in with a chance to climb back up the standings
It’s no secret that things got dark recently as a Philadelphia 76ers fan. The trade deadline deal shipping Jared McCain to Oklahoma City for draft picks cast a pall over everything. Not long after, nearly every Sixers regular got injured (or suspended) to the point where Nick Nurse was throwing out “Who’s that guy again?” […]
Despite new ailments, Embiid said his knees aren’t an issue and he’s ready for the stretch run
Joel Embiid is a notorious slow starter. Whether it’s the beginning of the season or after a long layoff, the former MVP generally takes a few games to get going. So much for that. The star center was brilliant from the opening tip in a 157-137 demolition of the Chicago Bulls Wednesday at Xfinity Mobile […]

Sixers obliterate Bulls as Embiid, PG make impressive returns
It turns out having your max contract players available is more helpful than not. The Sixers took care of business as they welcomed guys back, blowing out the Chicago Bulls 157-137 Wednesday night. It’s the most points they’ve scored in a game since 1986. They are 40-33 and can pull into a tie for the […]

Joel Embiid available for Sixers-Bulls after missing last 13 games
Don’t look now, but the Sixers actually might have over half of their starting lineup available. Philadelphia released their injury report ahead of their matchup with the Chicago Bulls, and there’s some potentially good news: Joel Embiid is listed as questionable. Embiid has yet to play in the month of March, suffering an oblique strain […]
Tyrese Maxey joined ‘The Tonight Show’ on Tuesday
The Sixers received some positive national attention for once on Tuesday, as Tyrese Maxey was a guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Here are some choice cuts from the good-natured appearance… “Man, I’m getting there. I’m getting there. I’m close,” Maxey says when Fallon asked him about the injured pinky finger that’s kept […]
Sixers — with at least one reinforcement — host Chicago Bulls ahead of three-game roadtrip
The Philadelphia 76ers are coming off a loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who predictably had their way with the injury-riddled Sixers in their last matchup. Now they’ll have a prime opportunity to bounce back against a team tumbling toward the bottom of the standings — the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls have had an #OnBrand […]
Contrite Paul George looking ahead as he returns from suspension
Since signing his max contract during the early stages of free agency in 2024, Paul George has been in uniform for just 68 games with the Sixers. Even if George plays the remaining 10 games of the 2025-26 campaign, he won’t hit the 82-game mark over the course of two seasons combined. The nine-time All-Star’s […]
Rockets Pick Tracker: Solid week helps the Sixers out in both standings
Taking care of business against the Utah Jazz and Sacramento Kings has given the Sixers a shot at new life. It may not be likely that they’re able to climb out of the Play-In tournament in the Eastern Conference, but it’s a lot more possible than it was a week ago. It’s good to have […]
Jared McCain remains a good guy to have on your team
It was well after 10 Monday night, well after Jared McCain’s new team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, had beaten his old one, the 76ers. And still McCain, in street clothes by then, lingered in Xfinity Mobile Arena’s lower stands, visiting with friends. A handful of people hovered about the place. Workers folded up chairs and pulled […]

VJ Edgecombe drops 35, but Hospital Sixers fall to OKC in Jared McCain’s return
It turns out when your most anticipated game for the second half of the season is the return game of a player you traded at the deadline, that is not a good sign. The Sixers were crushed 123-103 by the Oklahoma City Thunder Monday night. They are 39-33, awaiting the results of the Orlando Magic […]

Hospital Sixers in for tough night against league-best Thunder
After an ugly yet ultimately victorious night against the Jazz on Saturday, the Sixers have gone 4-1 in their last five games. Sure, it may have included a few opponents trying to tank, but it isn’t too bad considering the Sixers have been missing all their stars. Crucially, it’s kept them alive in the playoff picture […]

Sixers survive in Salt Lake, beating the tanking Jazz while losing another rotation player
If the Sixers are able to come away with an OK seed, they’ll owe quite a bit of it to the Jazz. Philadelphia outlasted a tanking Utah team, holding on to win 126-116 Saturday night. They are 39-32, the seventh seed in the East after losses earlier in the night by the Orlando Magic and […]

Sixers look to continue climb out of Play-In tonight against Jazz
About a week ago, I wrote about how we were all just waiting for the Play-In Tournament, surmising that this roster-depleted version of the Sixers was in no shape to finish above seventh place in the Eastern Conference. What I failed to properly account for was the remaining strength of schedule and just how many […]
Report: Bucks were interested in Edgecombe for Giannis
About a month removed from the NBA trade deadline, which largely fell flat for the Sixers, details of the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade talks are starting to leak out. ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne recently mentioned two players the Milwaukee Bucks had interest in — one of them being VJ Edgecombe. “Multiple sources across the league said the […]
