76ers coach Nick Nurse will embark on his first season leading the franchise when Philadelphia goes on the road to face the Bucks on Thursday night at Fiserv Forum.
Nurse begins a new chapter after spending five seasons as the Raptors coach from 2018 to ’23, winning an NBA title in ’19 and NBA Coach of the Year in ’20. Leading a new franchise also comes with embracing the fans of the new city.
Ahead of Thursday’s marquee matchup, Nurse shared the difference he’s observed between Toronto fans versus those residing in the City of Brotherly Love.
