The Sixers’ president job: a long game with big questions
Firing Daryl Morey ends an era, but the Sixers’ president of basketball operations role remains a high-stakes, long-term challenge. A new hire must navigate Embiid and George's expensive contracts, leverage the team’s solid draft capital, and build a deep roster while possibly living with a coach they didn’t choose, with real contention likely not until 2028 and beyond. Morey will stay involved at a high level, making the job as prestigious as it is patience-testing.
