Give Mike Gansey a pinch of credit for his acknowledgment of the most obvious part of the condition of the franchise as he takes over — kind of, sort of — the 76ers. “It’s not a championship caliber team right now,” Gansey said. Gansey is already at work as Philadelphia’s latest president of basketball operations, trying to find ways to raise the team to a championship level, while deeply hindered by near-untradeable, unwanted contracts tied to aging and unreliable Joel Embiid and Paul George.

NBA Finals Media Day reveal a young team who trust the process

On the eve of the NBA Finals, the Spurs’ superstar center indicated his team was still in the process of refocusing for the next — and final — round against the Knicks.

Talk about a gamble. A bettor stands one Spurs win away from seven figures, skipping out on six figures in the process. Patrick Everson reports.

The Sixers have work to do moving forward, but they showed more guts in 2025-26 than any team during the Joel Embiid era.

His son joined him during the postgame press conference — one that warranted tough questions about another disappointing playoff loss and an injury-filled season.

Joel Embiid and 76ers brass don't seem to be on the same page.

After a historic comeback gave way to a second-round sweep, the 76ers face another offseason of health and roster questions.

Joel Embiid had more bad injury luck to end his season, but this time, his knees weren’t the problem.

Joel Embiid pretty much begged 76ers fans not to sell their tickets and to show up for the home games during their second round matchup with the Knicks. The organization went as far as donating tickets to local community groups in an effort to keep Knicks fans out. “I used to think Philly was a sports town, I don’t know anymore,” Josh Hart said.

Anunoby sustained a hamstring injury late in Game 2 that also sidelined him for Game 3.

The NBA draft lottery is Sunday, with Washington, Indiana and Brooklyn having the best odds of winning the No. 1 pick. The lottery began in 1985, when the New York Knicks received the top selection and altered the course of their franchise by taking Patrick Ewing. The format has had its share of changes since then, and there might be another coming soon , but for now the process should be pretty familiar. The top four selections are determined via a weighted draw. Then picks No. 5-14 are disp...

He believes the fix is in.

The Knicks attempted 32 free throws on Friday night, twice as many as the Sixers.

Yeah, this is going to be a harder one to come back from. The Sixers were outclassed again by the New York Knicks, falling 108-94 in Game 3 and into a 3-0 series deficit. After missing Game 2, Joel Embiid never looked quite right, finishing with 18 points shooting 7-of-17 from the floor along with […]

Joel Embiid pleaded with 76ers fans to keep their home playoff tickets against the Knicks.

"We weren't gonna go until Embiid said something,” an organizer said.

Joel Embiid returned to the Philadelphia 76ers' lineup for Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals on Friday night after he missed the previous game against the New York Knicks with a sprained right ankle and a sore right hip. Embiid struggled through a short night in the Knicks’ 137-98 romp in Game 1, scoring 14 points on 3-for-11 shooting before the starters were benched with the game out of reach. Embiid had been listed as probable to play in that game and the Knicks repeatedly took ad...
