Photo by David Dow/NBAE via Both the Philadelphia 76ers and the Miami Heat will be missing starters as they face off on Monday night. Both teams will be shorthanded on Monday night in a contest between the Miami Heat and the Philadelphia 76ers. Sixers forward Tobias Harris will miss his second consecutive game with an ankle sprain. Harris had visibly rolled the ankle towards the end of the Sixers’ March 15 game at the Milwaukee Bucks. He finished that contest, but has been out since. He did not take part in the team’s morning shootaround Monday before being ruled...

Photo by Rich Schultz/ The Sixers will be trying to get a win streak going as they welcome Jimmy Butler and the Heat to Philadelphia. It wasn’t pretty, but the Sixers managed to put together a solid last few minutes and a late 15-4 run to beat the Hornets 109-98 on Saturday. While it was hardly a performance to be proud of against a 17-51 team, it at least takes the Sixers’ record to 37-30 to keep them level with their next opponent in the Eastern Conference standings: the 37-30 Miami Heat. The Sixers’ short stint at home comes to an end on Monday as they welcome...

Photo by Rich Schultz/ While we still don’t have a clear timeline for Joel Embiid’s return to action, the reigning MVP was able to participate in some portions of practice Sunday. The Sixers have had brutal injury luck for months now. Even beyond Joel Embiid’s absence, De’Anthony Melton and Robert Covington have been missed significant time. Players like Tyrese Maxey, Nicolas Batum and Tobias Harris have been in and out of the lineup. The results have mostly been ugly, but it’s hard when you’re shuffling the roster in a Process-like way. There was a bit of...

Kyle Ross-USA TODAY Sports The Sixers’ 23-year-old guard literally took a hit and kept on coming to lead his team to victory Saturday night. With the Philadelphia 76ers sliding down the standings, they badly needed a victory on Saturday night. The schedule makers helped out by serving up an injured Charlotte Hornets team playing on the second night of a back-to-back. Still, the Sixers wouldn’t have secured their 109-98 win without an excellent performance from All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey. Maxey scored a game-high 30 points, boosted by an 11-of-12 night from the free...

Photo by Stacy Revere/ Milwaukee Buck Patrick Beverley appeared to toss the game ball to his former Sixers coach, Nick Nurse, at the end of the teams’ contest Thursday night. The Philadelphia 76ers ran out of gas late against the Milwaukee Bucks, squandering their lead and ultimately falling 114-105 on Thursday night. If you watched through to the final horn, you may have noticed something as time expired. Former Sixer Patrick Beverley took the ball down the court and, when time ran out, appeared to flip the ball towards the back of Sixers’ coach Nick Nurse. i...

Jeff Hanisch-USA TODAY Sports Despite playing much better than they did on Tuesday evening, the Philadelphia 76ers couldn’t hold on to their lead over the Milwaukee Bucks, falling 114-105 on Thursday. Bell Ringer Season Totals: Joel Embiid - 19 Tyrese Maxey - 11 Kelly Oubre Jr. - 8 Tobias Harris - 7 Paul Reed - 4 De’Anthony Melton - 3 Jaden Springer - 3 Ricky Council IV - 2 Buddy Hield - 2 Patrick Beverley - 1 Danuel House Jr. - 1 Furkan Korkmaz - 1 Terquavion Smith - 1 The Philadelphia 76ers put up one hell of a fight against the Milwaukee Bucks but ran out of...

Photo by Jacob Kupferman/ The Sixers reportedly plan to sign big man and 2021 first-round pick Kai Jones to a 10-day contract. With two empty roster spots and a need for a big man, the Sixers will sign 2021 first-round pick Kai Jones to a 10-day contract, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. It was reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic last week that the Sixers would work out and meet with Jones. With Joel Embiid still sidelined, the 6-foot-11 Jones gives the Sixers a little more depth and size at the five spot. The 23-year-old was waived earlier this season by...

Photo by David Dow/NBAE via The Sixers will definitely reach 80 points tonight. I promise. The Philadelphia 76ers scored exactly 79 points in each of the last two games. In the year 2024. Sure, the New York Knicks are an excellent defensive team, particularly when OG Anunoby has been in the lineup, but we’re talking about scoring totals reminiscent of the time Tom Thibodeau first brought ‘Ice’ into our lives. Miraculously, the Sixers at least came away with one victory thanks to an outstanding defensive effort of their own on Sunday. Things did not go nearly as...

Photo by Tim Nwachukwu/ Where does the Tobias Harris trade and ensuing re-signing rank among the worst Sixers mistakes since the mid-2010s? Tobias Harris hit the nadir of his 2023-24 season on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. He scored a season-low two points on 1-of-6 shooting to go with three rebounds, one assist and two steals in 26 minutes in the Sixers’ 106-79 loss. The Sixers were starting a third-string center (Mo Bamba), a buyout pickup (Kyle Lowry) and a guy who they signed to a one-year, minimum-salary deal in mid-September (Kelly Oubre Jr.) along with...

Photo by Nathaniel S. Butler/NBAE via The Philadelphia 76ers crashed and burned on Tuesday night against the New York Knicks, failing to break 80 points for the second game in a row and falling 106-79.

The Sixers were demolished by the New York Knicks 106-79...

Photo by Tim Nwachukwu/ With Joel Embiid reportedly “not anywhere close” to returning, the Sixers are hoping for him to return for the last week of the regular season. It’s been five weeks today since Joel Embiid was sidelined to undergo a procedure to repair an injured meniscus in his left knee, and he was given a reported timeline of six to eight weeks to return. On Tuesday, ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne gave an update on NBA Today that Embiid’s return won’t quite line up with that six-to-eight week estimate and the Sixers are instead hoping he can return for...

Photo by Sarah Stier/ First team to 80 points wins. For the second time in three days, a nationally-televised audience will get to see the Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks party like it’s 1999. Sunday’s 79-73 Sixers win was literally something that we hadn’t seen since 2016. Here’s a graphic to illustrate just how offensive the offenses were in that contest where neither team reached 80 points: Times this has happened each season since 2000 https://t.co/0UVQGg0AoP pic.twitter.com/Q73poLEgNk— Automatic (@automaticnba) March 11, 2024 If you want one...
