76ers hope new coach Nick Nurse can lead team to NBA title.
The 76ers hired the 55-year-old Nurse, whom the Toronto Raptors fired in April. Nurse led the Raptors to the 2019 NBA championship after they beat Joel Embiid and the Sixers in Game 7 of the the Eastern Conference semifinals.
The 76ers held a 3-2 semifinals series lead against Boston before dropping Game 6 at home and getting crushed in Game 7 on the road. Nurse will be introduced later Thursday at the 76ers' headquarters in New Jersey. The length of his contract was not immediately revealed.
