Suite! Sixers, headlined by Joel Embiid, show support for Eagles
Philadelphia's major pro sports teams are thriving like at no other time in the city's history, with the Eagles and Flyers undefeated and the Phillies in the NLCS. The Sixers, who are legit title contenders, open the season Tuesday.
But before they did, several Sixers players showed up in force at the Eagles' victory Sunday night over the Cowboys.
Joel Embiid, who headlined the Sixers' contingent, threw a football around while the Eagles warmed up and introduced himself to several of the players. Embiid watched the game in a suite with Michael Rubin, his friend and former 76ers minority owner.
Meanwhile, the Sixers' Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris watched the game from another suite while teammate P.J. Tucker took in the game from the stands.
Over the past several months, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni and Sixers coach Doc Rivers have built a relationship.
What a Philly sports lovefest!
