VJ Edgecombe, Labaron Philon and Dominick Barlow are playing in Rico Hines Runs and putting together their fair share of highlights. Of course, we can’t take summer workouts and scrimmage \[…\] ## [Tyrese Maxey: ‘Nobody on this team can have an ego’](https://www.libertyballers.com/76ers-analysis/97512/tyrese-maxey-nobody-on-this-team-can-have-an-ego-philadelphia-76ers-sixers-nba) _2026-08-20 · Sean Kennedy · Liberty Ballers_ The Philadelphia 76ers have added a couple extremely high-profile names this offseason, somewhat understandably overshadowing the fact that Tyrese Maxey is coming off an All-NBA Third Team season. Still just 25 years old and with his 1 percent better mantra, it’s reasonable to expect Maxey to continue improving coming off that career-best campaign.

We often hear that phrase when a player is traded or when contract negotiations go sour. It’s true. It’s a league run by billionaires, many of them running their franchises like assets. You can tell players not to take it personally, but how could they not? Sure, they make millions \[…\] ## [What could go wrong (but hopefully won’t) for the Sixers in 2026-27?](https://www.libertyballers.com/76ers-analysis/97405/what-could-go-wrong-but-hopefully-wont-for-the-sixers-in-2026-27) _2026-08-19 · Greg Frank · Liberty Ballers_ By no means are we trying to be fatalistic as we trudge along through the middle of August and wait for Sixers training camp to open in late September. However, it’s at least worth pondering what MIGHT not work for Philly in a season that’s probably got more hype than any season we’ve seen for \[…\] ## [Editor-in-chief mailbag: How are we feeling?](https://www.libertyballers.com/76ers-discussion-threads/97487/editor-in-chief-mailbag-how-are-we-feeling) _2026-08-18 · Paul Hudrick · Liberty Ballers_ We’ve reached the doldrums of the NBA calendar. The only excitement currently is the investigation into the Kawhi Leonard-Clippers possible cap circumvention and whatever the hell is going on with the sale of the Los Angeles Lakers. But now that the schedule is out and you’ve had time to process and digest things, how are \[…\] ## [How Sixers develop and deploy their young talent will be major X Factor for 2026-2027](https://www.libertyballers.com/76ers-analysis/97339/sixers-lebron-james-vj-edgecombe-labaron-philon-dominick-barlow-justin-edwards) _2026-08-18 · Will Rucker · Liberty Ballers_ Excitement for the upcoming Sixers season is at an all-time high. Many are dreaming of what it’s going to look like seeing LeBron James in a Sixers uniform and how the loaded starting lineup of stars operate together on the same floor. There are many swing factors that could determine the ultimate outcome of this \[…\] ## [Sixers announce 2026-27 preseason schedule](https://www.libertyballers.com/76ers-news/97464/sixers-announce-2026-27-preseason-schedule) _2026-08-17 · Tom West · Liberty Ballers_ For many fans in Philadelphia (maybe all of them), I’m not sure the 2026-27 Sixers will feel like a real team until we see them play a game. Adding Jaylen Brown and none other than LeBron James in one offseason was a truly breathtaking turn of events for this team, and it’s not too long \[…\] ## [Report: Trendon Watford to sign one-year deal with Pelicans](https://www.libertyballers.com/76ers-news/97150/report-trendon-watford-to-sign-one-year-deal-with-pelicans) _2026-08-17 · Josh Grieb · Liberty Ballers_ The final 2026 Sixers free agent has found a home.
