Editor-in-chief mailbag: Another weird week for a weird team
The Sixers were rolling a bit. They’d won five of six. Joel Embiid and Paul George played six straight games together. Outside of a loss to the Hospital Nuggets last Monday, things were looking good heading into Sunday night’s matchup against the Raptors. But Embiid popped up on the injury report as out, now with […]

Sixers choke away leads in regulation, OT in ugly loss vs. Raptors
Well, the good news is this won’t be the loss this city is most mad about today. The Sixers blew a four-point lead with 19 seconds left in regulation, falling 116-115 to the Toronto Raptors in overtime Sunday night. Tyrese Maxey shook off a bad first half for the second straight game, leading all scorers […]

Sixers close road trip with first of two in Toronto
The Philadelphia 76ers are playing well in 2026, their only loss in the new year a one-point defeat in overtime to the Denver Nuggets. Overall, the Sixers have won five of their past six games to climb up to fifth place in the Eastern Conference. They’ll next make their final stop on their long Disney […]

Sixers kick off tough stretch starting with Orlando Magic
The Sixers are coming off a much-needed bounce-back win at home against the Washington Wizards, shaking off a disappointing loss. There won’t be much time to savor it, though, as they begin one of the toughest stretches of their regular-season schedule with a road matchup against the Orlando Magic. The Magic opened the year in […]
Don’t expect more Joel Embiid dunks, but his upward trajectory is encouraging
Young Joel Embiid could make a poster on any given night. Hell, he’d show up to a Philly neighborhood court and dunk on Joe Schmo. But multiple knee surgeries later, dunks haven’t been a part of Embiid’s game in recent years. Over the first seven years of his career, Embiid averaged 63.9 dunks in 56.3 […]
How great could the Maxey-Edgecombe backcourt be? Maybe the greatest in franchise history
Wali Jones, 83 years old but forever young, is not one of those back-in-my-day guys. Yes, he’s justifiably proud of an 11-year pro career that saw him quarterback a Sixers championship team in 1967 and at different times serve as sidekick on teams featuring Wilt, Moses and Kareem (no last names needed). But he’s not one to give modern-day players […]

Sixers’ Big 3 shines as team gets right vs. depleted Wizards
No awards will be handed out for this win, but this week has showed why you still have to go out and earn it. The Sixers rebounded from the Nuggets loss with a 131-110 win over the Washington Wizards Wednesday night. Joel Embiid led Philadelphia for the second night in a row, going for 28 […]

Kelly Oubre Jr.’s imminent return should stabilize the rotation
There are probably two distinct mindsets to interpreting the 2025-26 Philadelphia 76ers as we near the halfway point. On one hand, some fans are probably checked out. The last 10 years have been a whirlwind of emotions for Sixers fans and last season’s disaster was probably enough for many to scale back their investment, both […]
Sixers need to get back on track against Wizards
Well, that was disappointing. After going on a fun three-game win streak to close out 2025 and begin the new year — picking up wins against the Grizzlies, third-place Knicks, and Cooper Flagg’s Mavs — the Sixers completely fumbled the game they should have won. On Monday, they somehow lost to a hospital Nuggets squad […]
Joel Embiid, Kelly Oubre Jr., Trendon Watford all questionable as the Sixers host the Wizards
They can’t all get healthy at the same time without there being some doubt. Fresh off their worst loss of the season the Sixers look to bounce back hosting the Washington Wizards, and they’ve released an injury report for that contest. Joel Embiid, Kelly Oubre Jr., and Trendon Watford are all listed as questionable for […]

Let’s get after it… The Sixers falling overtime to the Nuggets is a brutal loss We’re more than a half-day into the online debate about whether the Sixers’ loss to a severely undermanned, Nikola Jokić-less […]
Tyrese Maxey drops to fifth overall in second All-Star voting returns
The NBA’s newly formatted All-Star Game is just over a month away, and Tyrese Maxey continues to receive strong turnout on the ballots. That is, not quite as strong as Jalen Brunson, as the Knicks’ faithful propelled him to the top Eastern Conference guard vote-getter, and dropped the Sixers star to fifth overall in the […]
