The Sixers’ entire 82 game schedule was released Wednesday night, and the team will once again open and close their home campaign with the Miami Heat — though this year they will have a lot less star power with LeBron James in Cleveland.

Here are some more highlights at the Wells Fargo Center, via the Sixers:
