Evan Turner's prediction about 76ers' struggles proved accurate
Evan Turner predicted a disappointing season for the Philadelphia 76ers before Paul George joined the team. The 76ers, expected to contend for a title, currently hold a 22-43 record and sit at No. 13 in the Eastern Conference. Joel Embiid has struggled with injuries, playing only 19 games this season. Turner had warned that Embiid's health issues would hinder the team's success, while George has also underperformed, averaging 16.2 points per game. With Embiid out for the season, the 76ers are now focused on tanking to protect their draft pick. The team's hopes of championship contention have faded, raising concerns about George's costly contract and the future of the franchise.
