The Philadelphia 76ers will look to take another step toward a championship in the 2025-26 season as they look to take advantage of a watered down Eastern Conference. Both the Boston Celtics and the Indiana Pacers will be missing their key stars and the East is as wide-open as it has been in quite some time.
If the Sixers can get some type of injury luck when it comes to Joel Embiid and Paul George, then it should be enough to get over the hump in the East. Those two plus Tyrese Maxey should be enough to go deep into the playoffs.
With the schedule now released, here is a complete team-by-team breakdown of when the Sixers will face each team in the league:
