Tyrese Maxey pumped his fist as he walked toward the 76ers’ bench, slapping hands with Kelly Oubre Jr. Oubre had just hit two free throws with 55.3 seconds remaining to finish off a fourth consecutive victory for the Sixers,

The Sixers entered Tuesday night losers of six consecutive games, and things were not going to get any easier as they concluded their three-game road trip. With Joel Embiid still out due to increased swelling in his left knee, the undermanned Sixers took on three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokić, altitude and the Denver Nuggets.

Jokić is back in his familiar position atop the fantasy leaderboard following a week he opened by extending a triple-double streak to five games before closing out his three-game schedule with an impressive double-double.

The 76ers reached the halfway point of their 2024-25 season, facing the team they began their season against, the Bucks.

Following an 0-3 road trip that took them past the regular season's midway point, the shorthanded Sixers are tumbling into Friday’s matchup against the Eastern Conference-leading Cleveland Cavaliers.

Opponents paint a portrait of one of the NBA’s up-and-coming defenders so convincing that they are open about wanting him on their team.

Bettors won’t get to see a Nikola Jokic vs. Joel Embiid matchup on Tuesday night, but there are still ways to bet on the prop market in the Denver Nuggets-Phila

Oubre had just hit two free throws with 55.3 seconds remaining to finish off a fourth consecutive victory for the Sixers, who erased a 12-point second-half deficit to top the Sacramento Kings, 117-104, Wednesday night at the Wells Fargo Center.

Sabonis has been a prototypical snub since he got to Sacramento four years ago. He puts up huge numbers for a team outside of title contention and sometimes gets lost in the fray as a result. He’s actually made more All-NBA teams than All-Star Games in his full seasons with the Kings.

The Knicks and Nuggets are surging, while the Warriors watch their window close. Meanwhile, the Cavs and Thunder have their business on lock.
