With the Philadelphia 76ers sitting out of the playoffs for the first time since 2017, now is the time to look around the postseason landscape and take a look at some former Sixers who are making an impact on the game's biggest stage.
The Los Angeles Clippers feature a trio of former Sixers: James Harden, Nic Batum, and Ben Simmons. Those three played a part in a big 117-83 win over the Denver Nuggets at home in Game 3 on Thursday night.
Harden, the former Sixers star, had 20 points, nine assists, and six rebounds while running things offensively for the Clippers. Batum, who the Sixers acquired in the Harden trade early in the 2023-24 season, had 12 points while shooting 4-for-6 from deep with five rebounds while Simmons went scoreless, but he did make an impact on defense.
Harden, an All-Star for the Clippers in 2025, continues to be phenomenal out on the floor. Of course, this isn't anything new as he has done this plenty of times in his career, but to see him continue to be dominant out on the floor is impressive and LA needs to take advantage of it as they look to go on a deep playoff run.
