Jared McCain and VJ Edgecombe emerged from the locker room Saturday afternoon and grabbed a pair of NBA TV microphones. That was part of a mini media tour for the two 76ers guards in the area behind the tunnel of the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

He's expected to be part of what should be a talented backcourt, with Tyrese Maxey, Jared McCain and Quentin Grimes—assuming he eventually re-signs with the team—also expected to have major roles in the 2025-26 campaign. Veterans Kyle Lowry and Eric Gordon could see minutes as well.

The 76ers suffered a 41-point loss to the San Antonio Spurs in their Las Vegas Summer League debut without Edgecombe. They managed just 70 points in the game, with just two players — Keve Aluma and Mark Armstrong — cracking double digits. None of Philadelphia’s five starters reached double figures, as the team shot just 36.8 percent from the floor.
