1973–74 Philadelphia 76ers season

Season of National Basketball Association team the Philadelphia 76ers

(Bill Campbell)

The 1973–74 Philadelphia 76ers season was the 76ers 25th season in the NBA & 11th season in Philadelphia. The team improved from a league history worst 9 wins to 25 wins, thanks to a fruitful 1973 NBA draft which yielded overall #1 pick Doug Collins. Eventual 76er mainstays George McGinnis and Caldwell Jones were also selected by the team, but both would opt for the ABA.

Fred Carter was the team's leading scorer who averaged over 20 points a game & Doug Collins was a rookie on this squad who was the #1 overall draft choice from Illinois State in the 1973 draft.
