Rotowire
Philon (rest) won't play in Saturday's Summer League game against the Bucks, Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Philon will take a seat for the 76ers' Summer League finale. The rookie first-rounder scored at least 15 points in all four of his Las Vegas Summer League appearances, during which he averaged 18.5 points, 5.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 steals in 32.0 minutes per contest.

Rotowire
Philon produced 15 points (7-24 FG, 1-13 3Pt), six rebounds, six assists and two steals over 37 minutes in Wednesday's 99-92 Summer League loss to the Magic.
Philon logged a heavy workload but struggled to find his shot, particularly from beyond the arc. Even so, the Alabama product made his presence felt elsewhere, leading the 76ers with six assists while matching teammate Amani Lyles for the team lead with six rebounds. Philon is averaging 18.5 points, 5.8 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 steals across four Summer League outings.

76ers' Labaron Philon: Team-high 17 points in SL loss
Rotowire
Philon finished Tuesday's 90-64 Summer League loss to the Rockets with 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, two rebounds, two steals and one block over 28 minutes.
Philon was one of the lone bright spots for the 76ers in Tuesday's blowout loss and led his team in both points in assists. He's averaged 19.7 points per game across three Summer League appearances, and he should provide the 76ers a solid scoring punch off the bench behind Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe, with Anfernee Simons being Philon's top competition for playing time.

76ers' Labaron Philon: Paces Philadelphia in SL win
Rotowire
Philon totaled 24 points (9-22 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six assists, three rebounds and one steal across 34 minutes in Saturday's 100-93 Summer League win over the Pacers in overtime.
Philon saw heavy usage and delivered with a team-high 24 points in the victory. He also led all players with six assists. Tyrese Maxey is entrenched as the 76ers' starting point guard, but Philon, the No. 22 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, figures to compete with Anfernee Simons for minutes off the bench in the backcourt.

76ers' Labaron Philon: Scores 18 points in SL win
Rotowire
Philon finished with 18 points (6-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven assists, three rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes in Thursday's 101-93 Summer League win over the Pistons.
Philon struggled from inside the arc but knocked down a game-high-tying four triples while finishing as one of four Philadelphia players to score at least 18 points. The 22nd overall pick in this year's draft also dished out a game-high seven assists in his Summer League debut. The 20-year-old guard will likely have an opportunity to carve out a role off the 76ers' bench in 2026-27, though he'll have to compete for playing time with guys like Anfernee Simons and Dalen Terry behind a loaded starting backcourt.

76ers' Labaron Philon: Nabbed by Philadelphia
Rotowire
Philon was selected by the 76ers with the No. 22 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.
Philon spurned the 2025 NBA Draft in favor of returning to Alabama for his sophomore season and subsequently broke out offensively. In 33 games with the Crimson Tide during the 2025-26 campaign, the 20-year-old averaged 22.0 points, 5.0 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.2 steals while shooting 50.1 percent from the field and 39.9 percent from beyond the arc in 30.9 minutes per contest. The guard's stellar season earned him All-SEC First Team honors. The 76ers boast a star point guard in Tyrese Maxey, allowing Philon to learn behind him and provide instant offense in a reserve role.
