Scott O'Neil comments on taking Sixers CEO job: “I love the NBA and the game of basketball and am thrilled to be back. I have lived in and
around Philadelphia for parts of my teens, 20s, 30s and now 40s
and I am really excited to be back and get started with the
Sixers. This is an incredible city that loves an underdog and
that is very much what the Sixers are right now.''
On ownership: “The ownership group wants to win and has proven they are
committed to invest the resources necessary to create a team
that will have sustainable success on and off the court. Josh is smart, tough and as good a guy as he is a success. I couldn’t imagine finding a better fit for me and my
family. This is going to be fun.”
