Exploring the ties between the Philadelphia 76ers and teams in the Western Conference’s Southwest Division brings us to some interesting connections. Let’s delve into the relationships:


Sixers Ties

Atlantic Division | Central Division | Southeast Division | Northwest Division


San Antonio Spurs

While the Southwest Division only boasts two active Sixers-related players on the Spurs roster, the stories are intriguing.

Charles Bassey, drafted by the Sixers in 2021, found his way to the Spurs after being waived. Despite a setback with a torn ACL, Bassey is determined to make a mark in San Antonio. On the flip side, Julian Champagnie has proven himself as a valuable rotation player for the Spurs, showcasing his skills as they gear up for the upcoming season.

Houston Rockets

Ime Udoka and Royal Ivey, both with ties to the Sixers, are now part of the coaching staff for the Rockets. Udoka’s relationship with Embiid was notable during his time in Philadelphia, while Ivey led a memorable coaching stint during the 2024 Olympics.

Dallas Mavericks

Dereck Lively II’s journey from attending Sixers games as a fan to becoming a key player for the Mavericks is a testament to his growth. Additionally, the Sixers’ involvement in the historic six-team trade sending Buddy Hield to the Warriors for Klay Thompson impacted the Mavericks.

Memphis Grizzlies

The tangled trail of draft picks involving the Sixers, Knicks, Charlotte, and Detroit ultimately landed UConn’s Cam Spencer in Memphis, showcasing the intricate web of NBA trades.

New Orleans Pelicans

The Sixers’ decision-making process after parting ways with Bryan Colangelo sheds light on their approach to front office hires. Opting for a collaborative structure led to Elton Brand’s promotion, ultimately influencing David Griffin’s path to the Pelicans and setting the stage for Daryl Morey’s pivotal role in Philadelphia.
