Trophy Hunting: 76ers & Flyers Among Bettor Favorites to Claim Titles For Philly
The Philadelphia 76ers won their last NBA Championship in 1983. Eleven years BEFORE Joel Embiid was born, and thirteen years before Ben Simmons‘ birth.
The Philadelphia Flyers championship drought is even longer. They last hoisted the Stanley Cup in 1975. Nine years later, the oldest player on their current roster was born (Nate Thompson). A quarter century later, Joel Farabee, the youngest player, was born.
Despite the fact that they would have to watch the teams’ titles on VHS, many aren’t scared off by the lack of championship pedigree. The Flyers and the 76ers are among the favorites of bettors at PA online sportsbooks to win the respective championships.
