The city of Philadelphia had a celebration-filled February after the Eagles won Super Bowl LIX on Feb. 9. However, that success hasn't carried over to one particular team in Philly.

The Philadelphia 76ers are in the midst of a nine-game losing streak, the longest active streak in the NBA. Their 1-10 record in February was the worst in the league, according to ESPN Research. Even more grim, the 76ers have failed to win a game since the Eagles won the Super Bowl.

Their tough stretch aligns with Jimmy Butler III's return to Philadelphia in a home matchup against the Golden State Warriors (8:30 p.m. ET, ABC), who have won seven of their last eight. Butler spent one season with the 76ers, aiding the franchise to an Eastern Conference semifinals run in 2019 before signing with the Miami Heat that offseason.

A portion of the 76ers' struggles this season is due to Joel Embiid's availability. The 2022-23 MVP has played in just 19 games because of a knee injury. The trio of Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George has only played 15 games together, going 7-8.

On Friday, the 76ers announced that Embiid will miss the remainder of the regular season as the team continues to find a solution for his left knee.

In terms of other Philadelphia area professional sports, heading into Saturday the Flyers are at .500 since the Super Bowl, while the Phillies are in the midst of spring training. The Philadelphia Union won their opening match of the MLS season last week.
