Our Values

At the Sixers, everything we do is rooted in our values. Whether it’s the professional athletes on the court or the staff who drive our business off the court, our values guide the way we cultivate relationships with our fans, our partners, our communities and each other.

By infusing our community work with our values, we craft experiences that provide young people with a foundation to learn and embrace the behaviors and actions that drive life-long success.
