No. 3 pick V.J. Edgecombe and No. 2 pick Dylan Harper expected to face off at Thomas & Mack Center at 10 p.m. ET on ESPN.

Once again, much of the juice in the Thomas & Mack Arena was gone before the Sixers could even begin their contest.

In going against Cooper Flagg and the Mavericks in NBA Summer League, Spurs rookie Dylan Harper says it could be a preview of what's to come.

The Philadelphia 76ers were plagued by injuries last year. Many of their starters suffered season-ending injuries throughout the course of the year, causing them to miss most of the season.

After walking out of the draft lottery with the third overall pick, the Sixers found themselves with a big decision to make. Despite being connected to an array of prospects, Daryl Morey and the front office went with guard VJ Edgecombe out of Baylor.

The 2024-25 NBA season was a disaster for the Philadelphia 76ers. Injuries to forward Paul George and center Joel Embiid derailed the franchise's push for a championship before it ever got started. A lack of frontcourt depth also played a role in how much Nick Nurse's team floundered through the campaign.
