The 2014–15 Philadelphia 76ers season was the 76th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).[1]
The 76ers 2013 NBA draft pick, Nerlens Noel, would play his first season in a Sixer uniform, but for the third straight year, they acquired a center (by draft or trade) that would not play for them the first year, as number 3 overall pick Joel Embiid was out with foot and back issues. Michael Carter Williams was traded to the Milwaukee Bucks for draft picks.[2] On December 1, 2014, the 76ers lost their 17th straight game to start the season 0–17, one loss shy of the New Jersey Nets 0–18 mark in 2009–10. On December 3, the 76ers won their first game of the season against the Minnesota Timberwolves avoiding the worst start without a win. The team finished with a record of 18–64 tied for the third worst record in franchise history (1995–1996, 18 wins; 2015–2016, 10 wins; 1972–1973, 9 wins).
