Maxey has already proven that he can be one of the best guards in the league. He earned his first All-Star appearance in 2024 and won the Most Improved Player of the Year award. McCain, meanwhile, surprised everyone with how he played. He even finished with one third-place vote in the Rookie of the Year ballot.

Bailey predicted the Philadelphia 76ers to finish with a 38-44 regular-season record. Typically, that standing could be enough to earn the Sixers a play-in spot. However, Bailey hinted that the health status of Paul George and Joel Embiid will largely dictate the team's fate.

Grimes showcased intriguing potential after being traded to the injury-riddled Sixers from the Dallas Mavericks in February, averaging 21.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.5 steals while shooting 37.3 percent from three-point range in 33.6 minutes per game over 28 regular-season appearances for Philadelphia.

Today in Boston Celtics history, guard PJ Dozier would sign a two-way contract with the storied ball club in 2018.

Gambee wore No. 20 for the majority of his career with the Sixers and the Syracuse Nationals. He wore No. 30 for a portion of the 1965-66 season, and he was a part of the 1967 title team.
