One big question @TheAthletic has for the Sixers: how healthy will they be?
“It’s a talented roster, but it’s such a volatile roster in terms of health. In a big way, that makes Philadelphia a fascinating watch.”
Per @JakeLFischer, the Sixers did not believe Quentin Grimes was worth $25 million a year 👀
“The sides were so far apart, sources say, that Philadelphia saw little need all summer to make an offer of any kind to Grimes until the week before training camps opened.”
FINAL: Sixers 104, Knicks 112
