Philadelphia 76ers

From the bright lights of the #NBADraft to welcoming two new players to our franchise, it’s been nothing short of incredible. Last week we kicked things off by selecting VJ Edgecombe and Johni Broome, two young men with talent, drive, and heart. We brought them around the City of Brotherly Love — where they got a true taste of what it means to be a 76er (and yes, that included their first Philly cheesesteak). As if that weren’t enough — yesterday, we started the week with a historic announcement: Philadelphia is officially getting a WNBA team in 2030. 🏀✨ Follow Philly WNBA for all W updates.

Welcome to Philly, WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association)!

Putting in work. Tyrese Maxey and Justin Edwards linked up in Dallas last week for some offseason work. The vet and the rookie pushing each other on and off the court — building chemistry, sharpening skills, and setting the tone for the season ahead. Take a look. 🎥⤵️

This month, we are proud to spotlight a key member of our organization who consistently creates new opportunities and resources for community members to enjoy while also bringing them closer to the sport of basketball – Josephine “Josie” Snyder Manager, Social Responsibility for the Philadelphia 76ers. Since beginning her career with the team in 2019 as a Social Responsibility intern, Josie has played a pivotal role in carrying out more than 500 community events in her tenure, reaching the lives of many who call Philadelphia home. Today, Josie’s role has grown to overseeing outreach initiatives for the Philadelphia 76ers, playing “middle woman” to connect corporate partners with real community needs. One of her proudest achievements has been spearheading the Assists for Safe Communities Program. This initiative started as a playoff campaign in Spring 2023 and has now become a multi-season platform across the organization and the city at large! As part of the program, for every assist that the 76ers tallied during the 2024-25 regular season, the team and Penn Medicine donated $76, split evenly with six partner organizations focused on violence prevention. Please visit this link for more information on the initiative https://lnkd.in/etGH6fqR. While organizing several community programs each season, Josie is also passionate about empowering others through leadership and rewarding success, “I’m always working to lift one another up, celebrating the wins as a team, and investing in the next generation of young women leaders through our high school and college programs.” We are proud to call Josie a friend and a coworker who continues to make this organization and city a better place! #JohnsonKendallJohnsonInsurance #WomenWhoInspire #Leadership #CommunityImpact #WomenWhoInspire #JohsonKendallJohnsonWomenWhoInspire #WomeninSports #HBSE #Operatons #SocialResponsibility #Philadelphia Johnson, Kendall & Johnson

In celebration of Women's Empowerment Month Johnson, Kendall & Johnson is proud to highlight a woman who has paved the way for SO many in the sports industry—Lara Price. As Chief Operating Officer, Lara has spent almost three decades shaping one of the NBA’s most storied franchises – The Philadelphia 76ers. She plays a pivotal role in business operations, communications, content and community engagement, bridging the gap between the organization and the city of Philadelphia, which it represents. Lara's impact extends beyond the playing court—she was instrumental in developing the Penn Medicine Philadelphia 76ers Training Complex, serving in leadership roles at The Sixers Youth Foundation, and leading strategic operations across Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment (HBSE), which includes New Jersey Devils, Prudential Center, Delaware Blue Coats, Washington Commanders and more! “I always live by an open-door policy, both in personal & professional settings. That’s for all employees within the HBSE family as well as any requests that come from outside of the organization. People did that for me when I was on my professional journey, so that’s something I want to offer others. My goal is to help others flourish in their own careers and one day surpass what I’m doing now!” When we talk about inspiration, we think of Lara’s history-making appointment in 1998 as one of the first female Vice Presidents in the NBA, paving the way for women in sports leadership. She is also incredibly proud of a more recent accolade; she was recently recognized as an honoree at the Police Athletic League (PAL) Awards Gala, recognized for her significant impact on youth programs! Her journey—from a student-athlete at Colorado State University for the women’s basketball team to one of the most respected executives in professional sports—is nothing short of inspiring. Join us in celebrating Lara Price – a woman who leads with passion and an unwavering commitment to making a difference. #WomenWhoInspire #JohsonKendallJohnsonWomenWhoInspire #JohnsonKendallJohnsonInsurance #WomeninSports #HBSE #Operations #SixersYouthFoundation #PAL
