Josh Harris on Nick Nurse, who will be back next season: "He's earned the right to be here. He's our coach."

When asked about the Jared McCain trade, Myers said he would not "disparage" Morey and that their job now is to "nail" the 22nd overall pick that the Sixers got in return. Adds the trade cannot be fully evaluated until all of those draft picks come through/are moved/etc.

Per Sixers, Embiid remains doubtful and Oubre remains questionable.

VJ Edgecombe is one of several Sixers going through the playoffs for the first time. And he will keep peppering those vets with questions for however long it lasts. “They're probably annoyed, but I don't care. I'm going to keep asking." www.inquirer.com/sixers/nba-f...

Justin Edwards, who would be in line for more playing time if Oubre is out/limited tonight, said he expects Oubre to play. Edwards also said Embiid participated in “a little bit” of shootaround.

VJ Edgecombe has had several bounce-back opportunities during his rookie season. He's answered the call every time. The Sixers are confident he'll do the same in Game 4: www.inquirer.com/sixers/sixer...

Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe take turns dominating and more of what we learned from the Sixers’ improbable 111-97 Game 2 win to even their series with the Celtics. www.inquirer.com/sixers/sixer...

After the 76ers’ Play-In Tournament win over the Magic, overzealous fans took to the streets and yelled, “We want Boston” in anticipation of their series against the Celtics. They sure got a heavy dose of Boston on Sunday in a 123-91 loss in Game 1. www.inquirer.com/sixers/sixer...

Joel Embiid has been diagnosed with appendicitis and will undergo surgery on Thursday in Houston. This is another ill-timed health issue for Embiid and for the Sixers. It typically takes multiple weeks to return to exercise following an appendectomy.

Paul George declined to reveal what substance he took that caused his 25-game suspension, but called it a poorly timed mistake.

Jared McCain was in Chicago a year ago, “stressed” about the draft combine. Last night, he was the Sixers’ onstage rep during a chaotic draft lottery, when brief confusion turned into a grin and a nod. “Oh, we got this.” www.inquirer.com/sixers/sixer...

ICYMI yesterday: A peek inside the draft lottery room, which began with it looking like the Sixers were doomed when Dallas and San Antonio went 1-2 and ended with assistant GM Ned Cohen chuckling at ESPN’s live flub. Because three was a particularly lucky number. Here’s why👇🏻

Asked Tyrese Maxey if he knew during the game when he was getting closer to a triple-double: "I didn’t know I was close until they were like, 'They took one of your rebounds away.' I was like, 'Well, dang, how many I got?' They were like, 'Well, eight now. I said, 'Oh eight? I need two more, then'"
