Where the Sixers stand financially after signing LeBron James, KCP
Sixers president of basketball operations Mike Gansey didn’t take long to make a big splash, huh? On July 1, he agreed to trade Paul George, two first-round picks and two second-round picks to the Boston Celtics for Jaylen Brown. He wasn’t done there, though. Three weeks later, the Sixers signed LeBron James (!) to a […]
Sixers trade Johni Broome, second-round pick to Clippers for cash considerations
ESPN’s Shams Charania has reported that the Sixers will be trading Johni Broome and a second-round pick to the LA Clippers for cash considerations. The team has since confirmed the trade. Details of that second-round pick have come from Jake Fischer of the Stein Line, who says that the pick will be the second-most favorable […]
Editor-in-chief mailbag: So, LeBron is a Sixer
I have to be honest, this is still tripping me up. I’ve been comparing the last few weeks of covering this team to an out-of-body experience. This type of good fortune rarely finds the Sixers. First, the Jaylen Brown trade. Then, LeBron James deciding to come here. Of course, it all looks fantastic on paper, […]
No, VJ Edgecombe’s development is not doomed by new Sixers lineup
Now that the dust has settled on the initial shock and excitement of LeBron James announcing his signing with the Philadelphia 76ers, the discussion focus has shifted to how the King will mesh with his new team. There are a ton of angles to look at this from, but one that has stood out to […]
Updated Sixers 2026-27 roster throughout monumental free agency
The 2026 NBA Draft is over, and free agency is underway. With all the comings and goings throughout the league overall, it can be hard to keep up with who is actually on the Philadelphia 76ers roster from day to day. So, use our tracker below to help you stay up-to-date on the Sixers’ roster as free […]
LeBron James, star-studded Sixers heading to Brooklyn for preseason game
It’s somewhat strange that in the year 2026, we still have to piece together NBA preseason schedules bit by bit over time from different sources, but we found another part of the puzzle on Monday afternoon, courtesy of the Brooklyn Nets. The Sixers will take the floor at the Barclays Center at 7:30pm ET on […]
Signing LeBron means pressure for Nick Nurse
While Sixers head coach Nick Nurse was celebrating his 59th birthday on Friday, the rest of the NBA universe went into a frenzy following the news that LeBron James will be signing with Philadelphia. With The King comes a new batch of lofty expectations. “I believe I can help make the Philadelphia 76ers a championship […]
Sixers waive Dalen Terry, clearing the way to officially sign LeBron James
And these transactions are officially in the works. The Sixers announced that they have waived Dalen Terry Sunday afternoon. Terry signed with the Sixers late last season on a two-way contract before finishing the year on a standard deal, replacing the injured Cam Payne. In the 14 games he appeared with the Sixers, Terry averaged […]
The skepticism about LeBron James and the Sixers is out of hand
On Friday, the Sixers pulled off one of the biggest free-agent heists in NBA history when they landed LeBron James on a two-year, $7.9 million veteran-minimum contract. You’d never know it based on some of the reactions to that deal. Jack Simone of the Boston Sports Journal declared that LeBron’s arrival in Philadelphia “will be […]
Breaking down Jaylen Brown’s extension options with the Sixers
Jaylen Brown hasn’t even been on the Sixers for a month. We still haven’t seen him play in a Sixers uniform. Yet the Sixers already have a tough decision to make with him. On July 26, Brown becomes eligible to sign a one-year extension worth no less than roughly $68.9 million. He’s only eligible to […]
Philly, you deserve this
In 2013, the Sixers brought on Sam Hinkie as general manager. The Daryl Morey protege took a sledgehammer to the roster, hoping to pull the franchise out of NBA purgatory and into perpetual relevancy. You could liken the next decade-plus to getting on a rollercoaster that never stops and is on fire. Sure, there have […]
Even now, Embiid holds the key to what the Sixers might become
Fifteen years ago, amid another promising summer, an Eagles backup quarterback named Vince Young surveyed the talent on hand – new acquisitions like himself, Nnamdi Asomugha, Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and Jason Babin, added to a Michael Vick-led core – and declared the Birds a “Dream Team.” Turned out that none of the new guys (least of […]
Report: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope expected to sign with Sixers
It hasn’t even been a day since LeBron James has reportedly signed with the Sixers and yet the front office remains active. Chris Haynes of NBATV and Amazon Prime has reported that the Sixers will be signing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope pending a buyout of his contract with the Memphis Grizzlies. Caldwell-Pope, also a Klutch client, was […]
Mike Gansey has orchestrated the greatest offseason in Philadelphia 76ers history
When Daryl Morey was fired by the Philadelphia 76ers back in May, fans weren’t quite sure what to expect in the organization’s search for its next top executive. When the Sixers hired Mike Gansey out of Cleveland a few weeks later, fans’ reaction was largely a half-nod, half-head tilt and an “OK, let’s see how […]
Philly reacts to LeBron James choosing the Sixers
This is going to take some getting used to. Typing out that headline, it still didn’t feel real. LeBron James is a member of the Philadelphia 76ers. It goes without saying that the entire Philadelphia region has been in a state of celebration since the news broke. Here are some of the best reactions to […]
Report: No current plan for Bronny James to join Sixers
So much for touring Malvern Prep. One of the many side plots of LeBron James’ most recent free agency decision was whether his son, Bronny, would leave the Lakers in some way to join his father at his next stop. Hours after LeBron chose the Philadelphia 76ers, some reporting has come in on Bronny. ESPN’s […]
LeBron is going to be a Sixer (yes, this is real)
Normally, when we write something along the lines of “it’s never a dull moment with the Sixers,” something either horrible or incredibly annoying has taken place. For once, the news is unquestionably exciting. LeBron James, arguably the greatest player to ever touch a basketball and one of the most successful athletes on the planet, is […]
What would an Anthony Davis trade look like for the Sixers?
We’re nearly a month into free agency, and LeBron James still hasn’t decided where he’s signing for next season. What’s the holdup? On Wednesday, Kevin O’Connor of Yahoo Sports floated one theory. “The popular theory around the league is that LeBron has been slow-playing his decision to see if any of his suitors could find […]
8 backup plans for the Sixers if they whiff on LeBron James
The Sixers have one open roster spot at the moment, and it’s fairly obvious whom they’re saving it for. But if LeBron James chooses to sign elsewhere in free agency, then what? The free-agent market has largely been picked over at this point. A handful of big names are still unsigned, although James Harden and […]
Mike Gansey deserves your vote of confidence
Mike Gansey hasn’t even been running the Sixers for two months. Yet his first impression could not have been better as the offseason rolls on and we approach a bit of a dead time on the NBA calendar. Of course, we’re all waiting for the big shoe to drop as LeBron James remains an unrestricted […]
Editor-in-chief mailbag: Taking a break from LeBron Watch (or not if you don’t want to)
Eventually, LeBron James will pick a new team. Or an old team. Either way, we won’t know the full scope of the Sixers’ offseason until James makes his decision for the 2026-27 season. ESPN’s Shams Charania has consistently mentioned the Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat and Sixers as the top-three destinations, with the Golden State Warriors […]
Jaylen Brown’s potential Boston return could come this preseason
As we — and the NBA schedule makers — await the news on where LeBron James is heading for the 2026-27 season, we did get a bit of Sixers news. The Boston Celtics revealed their preseason slate, which features two games against the team that eliminated them from the playoffs last season. While a home-and-home […]
Ayayi, Maddox with strong outings as Sixers drop Summer League finale to Bucks
The Sixers wrapped up their 2026 Summer League with a 96-94 loss at the buzzer to the Milwaukee Bucks Saturday evening. Labaron Philon Jr. got the day off, ending a solid summer for the rookie after four games. His shooting numbers got very skewed by a rough final outing. He ended up averaging 18.5 points […]
Sixers-Bucks, Summer League: Game Thread
Bold decision by FIFA to schedule the World Cup third-place match directly against Sixers summer league action. I guess they figure enough people dual screen these days that some people will still check out France-England. Anyway, the Sixers have dropped two straight after winning their first two games in Las Vegas. They’ll try to end […]
Is Labaron Philon Jr. a better fit for Nick Nurse, Sixers than Jared McCain?
For as much heat as Daryl Morey — and to some extent ownership — took for trading Jared McCain at last season’s deadline, let’s not forget that Nick Nurse played at least somewhat of a role in the departure of the team’s 2024 first-round pick. Nurse was quoted as saying McCain had gone through a […]
