After some time off, Sixers return to the court to face champion(?) Knicks
If you’re going to play a team on the road, it’s probably good to catch them right after they’ve been in Las Vegas celebrating a championship, and then had to play another game the night before. That’s the situation the Philadelphia 76ers find themselves in tonight, as they take on the New York Knicks. The […]
ROTY candidate or not, VJ Edgecombe is a basketball-obsessed winning player
Ben Simmons was the last Sixer to win Rookie of the Year back in 2017-18. Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel and Derik Queen are the favorites to win the award in 2025-26. Flagg, a no-doubter No. 1 overall pick, is picking it up after a tough start to the year with the 10-17 Dallas Mavericks. He […]
Paul George set out to look like himself again. So far, he’s doing just that
Amongst many of the goals set by the Philadelphia 76ers to ensure that season wouldn’t be as disastrous as last, was Paul George trying to get back to himself. After a first year in Philly that saw all of his production averages plummet, he wanted to show he could still earn the three years of […]
The Sixers have improved defensively — and it might be a reason for hope
At 14-11 thru 25 games, there really hasn’t been a lot of noise in the numbers for the Sixers so far as we wait for them to return to action on Friday. Other than the win-loss record, which is where everyone’s eye balls jump to first, a large portion of the team’s statistical profile suggests […]
NBA Refs account posts again after calling out Alaa Abdelnaby for not knowing non-existent backcourt rule
UPDATE: Tuesday, Dec. 16, 8:45 p.m. ET It keeps getting stranger. The NBA Referees X account is back at it again on Tuesday night with another “explanation” regarding this situation. I put explanation in quotes because… well, you tell me how much this helps explain for you. This post only raises more questions than it […]
Jared McCain finds himself in a weird situation
More things have gone right than not thus far during the 2025-26 season for the Philadelphia 76ers, as we have plenty of positive takeaways from the team’s 14-11 start. One situation that we would call underwhelming or disappointing, though, is Jared McCain’s sophomore season. With 16 games now under his belt, the former Duke Blue […]
What should the Sixers actually trade for?
It’s officially Dec. 15! A somewhat pivotal day in the NBA calendar, as all contracts in the league (most notably ones signed just over six months ago in the summer) become tradeable. Even more importantly, players traded today and tomorrow can have their salaries aggregated in additional deals ahead of this year’s deadline. So, with […]
Editor-in-chief mailbag: With trade season officially here, what should the Sixers target?
Dec. 15 is widely known as the official start of trade season, with many players who signed contracts this offseason eligible to be traded as of this date. It will have little impact on the Sixers’ current roster. Trendon Watford, who is currently out with an adductor strain and has played only 14 games this […]

Sixers drop controversial thriller vs. Hawks as refs miss obvious call late
It’s also a good bit that when they do win the third quarter, they end up losing the game. The Sixers and Atlanta Hawks once again came down to the final buzzer Sunday evening, with Philadelphia falling short 120-117. Paul George continued to look like the Paul George the Sixers paid for, leading all scorers […]

A statement game? For Joel Embiid, it was just a win with a group he loves
There was a time not so long ago where a Joel Embiid 39-point performance wouldn’t have moved the needle. There were nights when the former MVP got that done in three quarters. The 39 points Embiid poured in Friday night in a 115-105 win over the Indiana Pacers felt a little different. First off, it […]
Sixers look to start building momentum in matchup vs. Hawks
It may not have been against the toughest opponent, but the Sixers returned from their extra time off with a comfortable 115-105 win against the Pacers. As they played without Tyrese Maxey for the first time this season, it was a solid performance led by what was Joel Embiid’s best game of the season by […]
Watch all 39 points of Joel Embiid’s season-best performance vs. Pacers
The Philadelphia 76ers grabbed their 14th win of the season on Friday night, defeating the visiting Indiana Pacers 115-105, even with Tyrese Maxey sidelined due to illness. Even more encouraging than the victory itself was the sight of Joel Embiid’s best performance of the season by a fair margin — not only statistically so, but […]

Embiid drops season-high 39 points as Maxey-less Sixers top Pacers
Welcome back, big fella. The Tyrese Maxey-less Sixers were able to get back on track, knocking off the Indiana Pacers 115-105 Friday night. Joel Embiid easily had his best game since the 2024 playoffs, going for a season-high 39 points shooting 12-of-23 from the floor along with nine rebounds.

Tyrese Maxey ruled out vs Pacers with an illness
‘Tis the season for giving, but also the season for the sniffles. Tyrese Maxey will officially miss his first game of the season as the Sixers ruled him out with an illness ahead of their matchup ahead of the Indiana Pacers. Maxey initially popped up on the injury report as probable with said illness, before […]
Andre Drummond has proven to be the biggest pleasant surprise for the Sixers
With the NBA Cup providing a break in the schedule for the Philadelphia 76ers earlier this week, it was a good time to reflect on the first quarter of the regular season. While the Sixers have certainly had some letdowns since the season first tipped off back in October, I think anyone would have realistically […]
Can Sixers return strong after their extra rest?
Hopefully for the Sixers, the extra rest will have done them some good. Thanks to scheduling around the NBA Cup, the Sixers have been given four days off to rest, reset, and hopefully get a tad healthier following their 112-108 loss to the Lakers. On Friday, they’re returning with a more favorable matchup: the 6-18 […]
Delaware Blue Coats acquire rights to Charles Bassey
It’s not trade season in the NBA yet, but that hasn’t stopped G League teams from staying active. The Philadelphia 76ers’ affiliate, the Delaware Blue Coats, made a move on Thursday by sending Emoni Bates to the Texas Legends for the G League rights to a familiar face, Charles Bassey. Bates joined the Sixers organization […]
The NBA Cup makes the schedule weird, but the Sixers can again benefit from it
It’s been a weird week for the casual NBA fan flipping from game to game on League Pass. The options have dwindled as about 75% of the league has gone idle for the teams that have advanced to the knockout stage of the NBA Cup continue the tournament. It’s given teams like the Sixers something […]
Maybe Joel Embiid deserves an ounce of grace
The Philadelphia Eagles are struggling. They’ve now lost three games in a row — the latest a turnover-filled mess in overtime against the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football. Just eight months ago, Jalen Hurts was the MVP of Super Bowl LIX as the team ended a dominant season in dominant fashion. Today, the […]
