The Sixers plan to get “younger” and “more dynamic” this offseason. What questions do you have about that plan?
At long last, the Sixers’ lost 2024-25 campaign is over. The good news is that team president Daryl Morey appears to have learned a valuable lesson from this dumpster fire of a season.
“I was very focused on finding veteran-type players who generally perform very well in the playoffs, and I didn’t put enough emphasis on the team getting through the regular season,” Morey said at his end-of-season press conference Sunday. “So next season, for sure, we will be a younger, more dynamic group.”
Head coach Nick Nurse also seems to be on board with that plan, which bodes well for his and Morey’s ability not to be the next Michael Malone and Calvin Booth. It’s one thing to say that heading into the offseason, though. Given Nurse’s history of preferring veterans over young players—including at the beginning of this season—the jury remains out on whether this late-season experience genuinely did cause Morey and Nurse to see the light.
Now that we know the Sixers’ general offseason strategy/direction, what questions do you have about how they move forward? Drop them in the comments section below or send them to me on Bluesky (@btoporek.bsky.social) and I’ll answer as many as I can tomorrow.
In the meantime, enjoy the Chicago Bulls’ continued march toward becoming the late-2000s Sixers.
