VIDEO: Eagles RB Miles Sanders Rings the Bell Before 76ers Game on Wednesday
Miles Sanders might be from Pittsburgh, but you'd think he's a Philadelphia native based off how the city has been embracing him. Prior to the 76ers game on Wednesday, the Eagles rookie had the honor of ringing the famous bell prior to tip-off.
The ringing was actually way cooler than one would expect, mostly because of the CGI on the court that makes it look like the floor is breaking.
Sanders is coming off his biggest game of the year for the Eagles, so it's only fitting he's out repping the Sixers in Philly tonight.
While Sanders' ring was awesome, it pales comparison to Al Horford's ringing from opening night. The team made sure to make their newly-acquired center feel welcome while also trolling their opponents, the Boston Celtics, who they stole the big man from.
Expect many more famous personalities and players to be ringing the bell this year, but fans can only hope for more Eagles players to get the city pumped for both the Sixers and Birds at the same time.
