76ers’ next pivotal addition is already on the roster amidst early-season success

The Philadelphia 76ers went without a field goal in the last six minutes of the fourth quarter in their 113-111 loss to the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday. Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid shot 13.3% from the field in the period as Philadelphia lacked someone else to shoulder the offensive load.

This made the 76ers realize who they’ve been missing – Paul George.

While he may no longer be all-star caliber, George will provide Philadelphia with an essential two-way boost when he debuts. The 76ers have emerged as the second seed in the Eastern Conference and appear as one of the conference’s finest.
