Caleb Martin and Kelly Oubre Jr — who calls himself “the third Martin triplet” — spoke on their relationship and excitement to play together in Philadelphia.
The Sixers’ NBA Cup competition will include a playoff rematch.
The team has been drawn into East Group A of the NBA Cup, which was known as the in-season tournament last year in its first season. The other East Group A teams are the Knicks (who beat the Sixers in Round 1 of the 2024 playoffs), Magic, Nets and Hornets.
The Sixers will host the Nets and Knicks and they'll visit Orlando and Charlotte. Game and broadcast schedules will be announced at a later date.
