The 76ers in the 2022-23 season

The Philadelphia 76ers stand in the 9th position in the eastern conference standings. The expectations for coming into the season for the team were sky-high. The 76ers had made the right moves in the off-season, aided by Harden’s sacrifice of taking less money to build a talented roster. The 76ers brought in two experienced role players, Anthony Melton and PJ tucker. Moreover, the shocking rise of young guard Tyrese Maxey has been a godsend for the team. The 6’2” guard is averaging a career-high 22.6 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 3.4 assists.

Many fans blame coach Rivers for the poor rotations and game management, which has led the 76ers to lose more games than they have won. Moreover, the team’s spacing stands at the bottom of the league. However, the 76ers are still a force to be reckoned with. Most of their problems right now appear to be short-term in nature.
