@toglesby27 Listed at 6’4” or 6’5” depending on where you look

[Philadunkia @philadunkia]

Philon drops to the Sixers so Gansey and Myers grab the 6’5” guard…solid pick

[Derek Bodner @DerekBodnerNBA]

I went back and looked at the #1 overall picks from 2001 to 2017. Colangelo's 3 #1 picks averaged a -5 total bpm over the first 9 years of their NBA careers. The rest of the league averaged a +22.5 bpm on their #1 picks.

Truly remarkable to not draft even a league average player two out of three times with the #1 pick.

“League personnel continue to link Koa Peat to the 76ers.”

- @BrettSiegelNBA in his latest mock draft 🤔

[Austin Krell @NBAKrell]

Mike Gansey wore a suit and slicked back hair that would’ve made Pat Riley blush.

Bob Myers dressed like someone who answers to billionaires on a day-to-day basis.

Jameer Nelson? A ‘47-branded hat and a sweatshirt would suffice.

It’s not a bad thing. It’s symbolic of what makes Nelson the right guy for the job:

Sources said Elton Brand will not return as 76ers GM and is currently working through a new role with the franchise and its parent company, Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment. Brand, well-respected throughout the 76ers’ organization, elected not to interview for the President role after the team parted with Daryl Morey and has been fully supporting the team’s ongoing Draft prep.

Champagnie has 17 points tonight on 5/8 shooting from deep in a Game 7 on the road

[Philadunkia @philadunkia]

@MIKE_R_MARSHALL I hear ya…but Morey had to go and Nurse should follow

[Philadunkia @philadunkia]

Mixed feelings on this hire…really wanted Vince Rozman from OKC…but could have done worse than Gansey

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Just in: Cleveland Cavaliers general manager Mike Gansey has agreed to become the new President of Basketball Operations for the Philadelphia 76ers, sources tell ESPN. Gansey -- who rose the ranks within the Cavaliers front office since joining in 2011-12 -- now lands the top executive position in Philadelphia.

[Philadunkia @philadunkia]

Sixers should fly Nurse to Dallas on a pj and then pay Mavs to take him

[Sleeper76ers @sleeper76ers]

Nick Nurse has been mentioned as an “intriguing” candidate for the Mavs’ head coach opening, but the Sixers likely won’t grant Dallas permission to interview him, per @BrettSiegelNBA. 🧐

[Philadunkia @philadunkia]

Hell to the NO

[Sleeper76ers @sleeper76ers]

A mock trade proposed by @BleacherReport:

🔵 Sixers receive: Donovan Mitchell, Max Strus

🔵 Cavs receive: VJ Edgecombe, Paul George, 2026 first-round pick

Are you picking up the phone or immediately hanging up? 🧐

“Selling high” comment on McCain is not aging well…in fact it’s become laughable

[Philadunkia @philadunkia]

LFG…OKC by 100

[ESPN @espn]

Breaking: Jared McCain will start Game 5 vs. the San Antonio Spurs.

Tonight will be McCain's first career playoff start.

[CBain @cbain100]

We flipped them into a Tobias max contract and a guy with a career ending nut allergy

[StatMuse @statmuse]
