Philadelphia 76ers 1973-74 Roster and Stats

The 1973-74 Philadelphia 76ers endured one of the toughest seasons in NBA history. The team finished with a dismal record of 25-57, marking a significant improvement from their previous season’s 9-73 record but still far from competitive. Under the guidance of head coach Gene Shue, the 76ers struggled to find consistency and cohesion on the court.

The team was led by Fred Carter, who averaged 20 points per game, providing a glimmer of hope in an otherwise challenging season. Despite the efforts of Carter and other key players like Doug Collins and Tom Van Arsdale, the 76ers were unable to secure a playoff berth, finishing last in the Atlantic Division.

The 1973-74 season was a rebuilding year for the franchise, laying the groundwork for future development. It highlighted the need for a more robust roster and better team dynamics to compete effectively in the NBA.
