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.
