âReally tallâ Dean Wade is here to shoot the ball and help the Sixers defense (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For the duration of Tyrese Maxeyâs NBA career, Dean Wade was on the Cleveland Cavaliers, which meant Maxey and Wade shared the floor plenty over the last six years. But one quality of Wade didnât stand out for Maxey until they got on the practice floor together. âI didnât know he was this tall,â Maxey said. âYou play against a guy two or three times a year, but you donât really realize until youâre seeing somebody every day, heâs tall.

Dealing with ânoiseâ part of Sixers season, even that from LeBron Jamesâ helicopter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As Anfernee Simons was discussing the first day of training camp for the 76ers, the noise from outside the Sixers practice facility began getting louder.
