The Sixers are making a front-office change after six seasons, with Bob Myers set to lead the search for a new basketball operations chief

The Philadelphia 76ers have parted ways with Daryl Morey, ending his six-year run as president of basketball operations, while keeping Nick Nurse as head coach.

Managing partner Josh Harris called it “time for a fresh start” after a stretch that included five playoff appearances, a 270-212 record and no trip beyond the second round.

Bob Myers, the former Golden State Warriors championship executive, will lead the search for Philadelphia’s next top basketball decision-maker. Harris also acknowledged fans’ frustration as the franchise looks to reset around Joel Embiid, Paul George and Tyrese Maxey.
