Despite 29 points from rookie Jared McCain, the Philadelphia 76ers fell to the Orlando Magic on Friday night to drop to 2-10 on the season. The Sixers’ offense scored a measly 3 points in nearly 8 minutes of game play during a 20-3 Magic run. Joel Embiid (20 points) and Paul George (13 point) struggled mightily from the field and played a huge role in the collapse.

The Philadelphia 76ers have struggled without Joel Embiid, Paul George and Tyrese Maxey — raising some real concerns. But there has been one true bright spot for the team — rookie Jared McCain. Over the last four contests, McCain is averaging 25.5 points per game and has made a strong case to remain in Nick Nurse’s rotation. But the real question needs to be… should he be considered for a starting spot in the backcourt with Maxey when he returns?

The PHLY Sixers team discusses the possible fit as a starter for the rookie and how his play might work alongside the Big 3.

Philadelphia 76ers rookie Jared McCain dropped a new career-high 34 points, but it wasn't enough to hand the Cleveland Cavaliers their first loss of the season as they improved to an NBA-best 13-0, defeating the Sixers 114-106. The shorthanded 76ers fought until the end with contributions from starters Kelly Oubre (20), and Caleb Martin (18), plus help off the bench from Reggie Jackson (13). The Cavaliers were led by their All-Star backcourt of Darius Garland (25) and Donovan Mitchell (23). McCain added nine assists, falling one short of a double-double.

The Philadelphia 76ers welcomed Joel Embiid back to the floor in their NBA Cup game on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. But a rusty Embiid struggled and the Sixers lost to New York, 111-99.

Like Embiid tends to starting a season, he struggled offensively. He finished with 13 points on 2-11 shooting, looking far from the player on an MVP pace at this time a season ago. There were some bright spots for the Sixers. Paul George (29 points, 7 threes) and rookie Jared McCain (23 points) both had big nights. But the Sixers were outmanned by the Knicks.

Guerschon Yabusele has been a revelation for Nick Nurse’s Sixers to open the year, outplaying Andre Drummond as a backup. Could he end up in a starting lineup next to Joel Embiid, and how will his role evolve moving forward?

The Philadelphia 76ers picked up their second win of the season in an overtime thriller over the Charlotte Hornets, escaping with a 107-105 win in Paul George’s home debut.

The Sixers were led by a career night from Jared McCain, as the rookie finished with 27 points in 31 minutes off the bench, shooting 10-18 from the field and 3-8 from 3-point range. Guerschon Yabusele, who was inserted into the starting lineup after the half, chipped in with 20 points and 8 rebounds in the win.

The Philadelphia 76ers dropped their 5th straight game with a 116-106 loss to the Lakers on Friday night. The Sixers had no answers for Anthony Davis, LeBron James or Austin Reaves, with the Lakers making 16-35 from 3-point range as they cruised to an easy win in Los Angeles. With the loss, the Sixers went 0-3 on the West Coast road trip and now stand at just 1-7 on the season.

The Sixers received a bounceback performance from the struggling Caleb Martin, and the best night of Jared McCain’s career as the young guard chipped in with 18 points off the bench.

Join the PHLY Sixers team as they break down another disappointing loss in what has been a disastrous start for the Sixers.

Tyrese Maxey has a right hamstring injury, which he suffered in the second half of Wednesday night's loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. While Maxey will receive additional testing later today, the Sixers are preparing for the possibility that he will miss a couple of weeks of action due to the injury.

Will Joel Embiid, who still has one more game remaining on his three-game suspension, and Paul George be able to keep the Sixers afloat in Maxey's absence?

The PHLY Sixers team breaks down the impact of the devastating news on what was already a wildly disappointing start to the Sixers season.

Tyrese Maxey left the Sixers’ loss to the Clippers early with a hamstring issue, and the 1-6 Sixers are now spiraling on multiple fronts. Paul George returned to his hometown and finished with 18 points, but was nowhere near enough to overcome Norman Powell, James Harden, and the rest of LA.

Joel Embiid sounds very close to a return to action for the Sixers. If he comes back for Wednesday’s meeting against the Clippers and James Harden, will that fix every problem for Nick Nurse’s team? Or do they still have issues via Andre Drummond and their backups?

The PHLY Sixers podcast discusses their 1-5 start and whether the returning Embiid is a fix-all.
