As one of 10 current head coaches who played in the NBA, 76ers coach Doc Rivers has experienced his share of physical battles throughout his career. And, after leading his team to a gritty Game 3 win over the Nets, Rivers took a trip down memory lane while discussing the physical nature of Thursday’s game in Brooklyn.
The Sixers took a commanding 3–0 lead in their first-round series after claiming a 102–97 win that featured a questionable Flagrant 1 foul on Joel Embiid, and late-game ejections for James Harden and Nets center Nic Claxton.

The Cardinals unveiled three new uniforms for the first time since 2005 on Thursday night, and they created quite the stir on social media—but perhaps not for reasons they’d hoped.
The new uniforms take a simplistic, monochromatic look, with all-red home unis, all-white on the road and an all-black alternate.
To many NFL fans, these uniforms came off as boring, and far too similar to the team’s previous uniforms. To others, they appeared to be eerily similar to a well-known uniform in the football world: the Ohio State Buckeyes.

In his best win yet, Chicago White Sox closer Liam Hendriks announced he is cancer-free at last.
Hendricks, 34, stepped away from the team in January after announcing his diagnosis of non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. And after months of chemotherapy, it was Hendriks’ turn to ring the bell.
The two-time AL Reliever of the Year made the announcement on Thursday via his social media.
“How it started vs. how it’s going,” Hendriks posted, adding photos of his journey from treatment to victory. “REMISSION. It’s official, I’m cancer free.

James Harden and Nic Claxton were ejected. Joel Embiid wasn’t.
Game 3 of the Philadelphia 76ers vs. Brooklyn Nets series in the first round of the 2023 NBA Playoffs was always going to have huge stakes. Philadelphia held a 2-0 series lead after taking care of business at home, and the Nets felt like they had to win Game 3 in New York to still have a chance at advancing.
The 76ers beat the Nets, 102-97, to take a commanding 3-0 series lead.
