A decade in the NBA later, former Sixer T.J. McConnell just keeps going and going

Oh, and by the way, T.J. McConnell was back in town Friday, too.

That was very much beside the point on a night when Joel Embiid was knocked out of the Sixers-Pacers game after taking an inadvertent blow to the face. That this occurred on Friday the 13th might seem significant, except for the fact that the Sixers haven’t had much luck on a great many other days this season, either.

Meantime McConnell continues to live a charmed life. He’s 10 years into a career that began when the Sixers brought him aboard as an undrafted free agent in 2015, in the heart of The Process.
