Providence begins a rebuild under Bryan Hodgson after three seasons without an NCAA Tournament berth, relying on transfers and younger players to revive the program. San Diego State faces a similar roster-reset challenge after missing the tournament last season, with heavy transfer losses complicating its move into the revamped Pac-12. Maryland is looking to rebound from a 12-21 debut season under Buzz Williams after reshaping much of its roster through transfers.

76ers’ Preseason Loss Raises Defensive, Roster Concerns

The 76ers’ preseason has raised concerns about defensive struggles, sloppy turnovers and whether their star-powered offense can carry the team, particularly after a blowout loss to Boston. Some analysis argues worries about thin center depth may be overstated given Joel Embiid’s impact and the team’s small-ball options, but the defense and execution remain key questions.
