Best-case scenario: Joel Embiid returns to (most of) his MVP form, Paul George returns to (most of) his All-NBA self, and Tyrese Maxey makes the next leap in line, giving the Sixers the kind of bona fide Big Three they’d been banking on. With VJ Edgecombe and Jared McCain providing thunder, lightning and impeccable vibes in the backcourt, and Quentin Grimes connecting the dots on the wing, Philly soars back into the top 10 in offensive efficiency, and Nick Nurse schemes up enough advantages for the team to get back to league-average on the other end (and elite when Joel’s manning the middle). The Sixers make everyone who loved their 2024 offseason look like geniuses, rocketing to a top-four seed in the East and entering April mostly healthy, setting Embiid up to make the kind of run we’ve all been waiting for.
