Nick Nurse was asked if he thought the fans left the game feeling like the team worked hard tonight:
November 26, 2025 at 4:02 AM
Orlando has called a timeout with 9:26 to go in a 39-point game. It is 10:13 on a weeknight.

This better be the best play the sport has ever seen.
November 26, 2025 at 3:15 AM
Maxey is staying in the game. The Sixers are down 37 with 3:41 to play in the third.
Get Maxey out of this game.
November 26, 2025 at 3:00 AM
Edwards is back.
Justin Edwards is now headed to the locker room.
November 26, 2025 at 2:57 AM
Get Maxey out of this game.

Justin Edwards is now headed to the locker room.
November 26, 2025 at 2:42 AM
Same starting 5 to open the third.

Wonder how long before Nurse gets Maxey some rest.
November 26, 2025 at 2:41 AM
Magic had 15 assists in 2nd quarter. Sixers had just 5.

Sixers allowed 17 points on 8 tovs; Magic turned it over 3 times for 0 points allowed.

Without knowing exact number, missed layups by Philly felt huge. Bad floor balance against transition offense is usually disastrous.
November 26, 2025 at 2:37 AM
Trendon Watford has a left adductor strain and will not return tonight.
November 26, 2025 at 2:27 AM
The Sixers gave up 51 points in the 2nd quarter.
November 26, 2025 at 2:25 AM
Suggs just threw his towel into the crowd as he bellowed in excitement walking to the locker room after his ejection.

One tech each for Bane and Jabari Walker.

Double Ts for Drummond and WCJ.
November 26, 2025 at 2:23 AM
Trendon Watford has to be helped to the locker room. He tumbled down pushing the ball in transition and seemed to be clutching his midsection.

NEW On Pattison

With yet another absence for Joel Embiid and Paul George, Nick Nurse's entire pregame media availability revolved around injuries.

Nurse says Joel is "just not quite there yet".

He participated in parts of shootaround. Nurse does not think there is swelling.

Nurse says it was "trending toward he was going to play".

Paul George reported soreness in the ankle after last game.

I don’t think I’ll ever get used to that flea-flicker baseline inbound rule in college basketball. The guy running out of bounds to get the first pass before throwing the second pass inbound always gets me.
November 25, 2025 at 12:15 AM
Joel Embiid has been upgraded to QUESTIONABLE for tomorrow’s game vs the Orlando Magic.

VJ Edgecombe remains out with left calf tightness.

Tyrese Maxey is probable with a right shoulder sprain, Paul George probable with right ankle sprain.

Per the NBA, Dec. 26 game between Philadelphia and Chicago game will now be televised by Prime Video, with game time changed to 7:30 PM ET.

The Boston at Indiana game will no longer be televised by Prime Video, with game time changed to 7:00 PM ET.

I do not comprehend how people drink iced coffee when the temp drops below 40.

Before the Eagles soiled themselves, the Sixers played an afternoon basketball game.

It was rough:

More meaningful for the Sixers' big picture, Jared McCain looked his best since returning from what was nearly a year-long layoff.

Big news: Bob Marley is back for more.
November 23, 2025 at 9:39 PM
Nurse says Tyrese Maxey's shoulder was checked out at halftime and he was able to play through it.

He did not have any new information on it after the game but said it would continue to be evaluated.
November 23, 2025 at 8:36 PM
Sixers lost the third quarter by 2. Perfectly fine. They go into the fourth down 6. Tyrese Maxey has logged 30 minutes thus far. Paul George at 20. Jared McCain at 19. Gonna need some discipline from Quentin Grimes here.
November 23, 2025 at 7:51 PM
Been some real amateur-hour officiating from this crew today.
