We are about to enter the season of giving and that applies not just to holiday presents, but to basketball games as well.
The Philadelphia 76ers and Washington Wizards came up with inventive ways to give away their games on Wednesday night.
76ers give it away with turnovers
The 76ers were so close to defeating the Celtics on Wednesday night, but instead suffered their NBA-record tying 26th straight loss. The 76ers also became the first team in NBA history to start 0-16 in consecutive seasons.
This game was there for the taking, or as it turned out, for the giving.
