Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George revealed that fans of the franchise have heckled him with Tobias Harris insults.

The 76ers finished the year 24-58 and broke […]

Paul George knew what he was walking into when he signed with the Sixers. Philly fans don’t do coddling. They don’t deal in niceties.

The Philadelphia 76ers were rewarded for one of the worst and unluckiest seasons imaginable with the No. 3 overall pick in the NBA Draft when the lottery concluded.

The Philadelphia 76ers have the No. 3 pick in the NBA Draft, and they’ll have a lot of options to choose from when the time comes. One of the players already being discussed for the pick is Ace Bailey, who showed at Rutgers that he can be a big-time scorer. Funny enough, Paul George had […]

The Indiana Pacers have made it to the Eastern Conference Finals for the second consecutive year, hearkening back to the Pacers teams in the mid-2010s that made it to two straight ECFs as well.

While that […]

Between the three of them, Paul George, Tyrese Maxey, and Joel Embiid played in 134 of the 246 possible games combined in the regular season. That’s just over 50% of their games in their first season together. Their absences from the lineup put Philadelphia 76ers coach Nick Nurse in tough positions every night. Injuries killed […]

Injuries had a large influence on their season, but a 24-58 record made the […]

The Los Angeles Clippers and Denver Nuggets are in a heated playoff battle, with Game 4 at Intuit Dome on Saturday afternoon.

The Philadelphia 76ers had a nightmare 2024-25 season, missing out on the playoffs by a long shot. The health of their three stars — Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey — was also an issue.

 The Philadelphia 76ers season began with lofty title aspirations and died with them being buried in an unmarked grave. The cliff notes on what went wrong are straightforward: Joel Embiid’s balky knee required a second operation that upended his season before it even began. Tyrese Maxey’s development stunted, and Nick Nurse rolled out a record […]

Stephen A. Smith ripped 76ers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey as the franchise finished its dismal season. There’s no way to skate around it.

PHILADELPHIA — After a disastrous, 24-win season, the Philadelphia 76ers are running it back.

PHILADELPHIA — Paul George still believes the Philadelphia 76ers can be a title contender in the years to come.

The Indiana Pacers are a storied franchise marked by periods of prolonged success, including three ABA Championships, although they’ve never made it to the promised land in the NBA. That doesn’t mean they’ve been lacking in talent though. Some of the most notable names in the game’s history and those around the league today were […]

Heading into the 2024-25 NBA season, the Philadelphia 76ers hoped they had landed a do-it-all NBA wing who could cover opposing scorers, hit open 3s, and do some ISO scoring when they needed a bucket.

The Los Angeles Clippers are peaking at the right time, as they have won 11 of their last 13 games after Saturday evening’s home victory over the Dallas Mavericks.
