The 76ers eliminated the Celtics in the first round of the 2026 NBA playoffs – the favorites to win the Eastern Conference.Â
That’s the first playoff series win since 2023, when the Sixers swept the hapless Nets in the first round to set up yet another series against Boston. That time, the C’s won a Game 7 at home.
The 76ers’ odds market was left for dead for much of 2026. But instead of another brutal postseason loss, Philadelphia has the opportunity to be the first No. 7 seed to ever win its conference.
