The Sixers are expected to consider the newly available Billy Donovan for their vacancy at head coach.

After getting swept out of the playoffs in the first round, the Philadelphia 76ers were quick to pull the plug on Brett Brown. Now the search for a new head coach is ongoing, with one candidate standing above the rest — Tyronn Lue.

With that said, Lue is not the only candidate the Sixers are expected to consider. After an amicable and mutually agreed upon departure from Oklahoma City, Billy Donovan is now on the market.
