Evan Turner garnered attention for his stance on the Philadelphia 76ers during his March 30 appearance on NBC.

Turner played in the NBA for 10 years from 2010 to 2020. The 76ers selected him with the second overall pick in the 2010 draft, representing the franchise for four seasons.

Turner played in 279 total games with Philadelphia, producing 11.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game. Even though he was unsuccessful in achieving the expectations he has as the second pick, he was still able to have a decent career where he played well as a role player.

Turner now serves as an analyst for NBC, providing his insights on current events going in the NBA this season. When it came to his take for the 76ers' matchup against the Miami Heat, the former player started his response with a humorous diss towards Philadelphia.

“I can't stand Philadelphia,” Turner said.
