The Philadelphia 76ers have three All-Stars and a well-founded reason to believe they can contend in 2025-26. Unfortunately, the 76ers also have two All-Stars with a long history of injuries that have already rendered the 2024-25 season somewhat obsolete.

The difference between the 2025-26 and 2024-25 76ers, however, is that the roster in place would still offer ample reason for optimism if Joel Embiid and Paul George are unable to stay healthy.
