The Sixers will hold their annual media day on Monday to unofficially lift the curtain on the 2022-23 season. In that spirit, ginamizell lists 17 pressing questions for 17 Sixers players.

Monday will be about talking for the Sixers, who will hold their annual media day to unofficially lift the curtain on the 2022-23 season before heading to Charleston for training camp.

And yet, unlucky injuries plagued Embiid during the playoffs. He tore a ligament in his thumb in the Sixers’ first-round series against the Toronto Raptors. He continued to play with it stabilized with tape on his hand and wrist. But in the final minutes of Game 6 of that series, Embiid suffered an orbital fracture and concussion when he took a Pascal Siakam inadvertent elbow to the face.

Harden acknowledged in a July interview with Yahoo! Sports that his hamstring was still not right last season. Now he is coming off his first full offseason since before the pandemic, allowing him to heal and build proper conditioning for the season’s grind. to create shots for himself and others. Maxey also has work to do as a defender, where he is naturally at a disadvantage because of his 6-foot-2 frame.After a rocky start to the 2021-22 season, Harris discovered his niche after the Harden trade and especially, during the playoffs.

Even at age 37, it will be interesting to monitor Tucker’s tangible and more subtle influence on his teammates. We already know Embiid will be on board.Melton was the first addition of the Sixers’ offseason, when they traded their 2022 first-round draft pick and the injured Green for the fifth-year combo guard.

Perhaps the more pertinent question — again — is if Thybulle remains on the roster for the entire season. His age and defensive prowess keep him as the Sixers’ most enticing trade asset. The Sixers tried to deal Thybulle to the Rockets on draft night for veteran Eric Gordon, who would bring more of an offensive punch.Niang set career highs in scoring , rebounds , assists , and field-goal attempts in his first season as a Sixer, while shooting 40.3% from beyond the arc.

It makes sense why the Sixers would want more experience behind Embiid, an approach last season that worked well with Andre Drummond but not with Jordan. At some point, though, consistent game reps will be the best way for Reed to take the next step in his development and prove that he is an NBA rotation player. It’s fair to wonder how much more prepared Reed would have been for last year’s playoffs if he had gotten more minutes during the regular season.

Harrell’s numbers have dipped since that career season with the Clippers, including while splitting time between the Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets last season. Perhaps some familiar faces can help Harrell reestablish himself as one of the league’s more productive reserves.Korkmaz filled in admirably as an emergency point guard when injuries and COVID decimated that position.

Naturally, House is also a former Rocket with a history with Harden, Tucker, and Morey. This feels like an appropriate environment to re-establish his career for a full season.The Sixers enter camp with 17 players under full contracts, and will need to reduce that to 15 by opening night.
