Philadelphia 76ers 1963-64 Roster and Stats

The 1963-64 Philadelphia 76ers season marked the franchise’s first year in Philadelphia after relocating from Syracuse, where they were known as the Nationals. Under head coach Dolph Schayes, the team finished the regular season with a 34-46 record, placing third in the Eastern Division.

Despite their losing record, the 76ers managed to reach the playoffs. They faced the Cincinnati Royals in the Eastern Division Semifinals but were defeated in a tight five-game series, losing 3-2. The team was led by stars like Hal Greer and Chet Walker, who provided strong offensive performances throughout the season.

This inaugural Philadelphia season laid the foundation for future success, although significant changes were on the horizon. The arrival of Wilt Chamberlain in the following years would dramatically alter the team’s trajectory, eventually leading to their championship victory in 1967.

Regular Season Record: 34-46
Playoff Result: Division Semifinals: 2-3
