The 2013–14 Philadelphia 76ers season represented the franchise’s 75th year of existence, its 65th campaign competing in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 51st season based in Philadelphia. During this period, the team matched the NBA record for the longest losing streak, enduring 26 consecutive defeats—from a 99–125 loss against the Atlanta Hawks on January 31 until securing a 123–98 win over the Detroit Pistons on March 29. After beginning the season with a 14–31 record over the first 45 games, the Sixers concluded with a disappointing 5–32 performance across their final 37 contests.
Rookie guard Michael Carter-Williams delivered an impressive debut, ultimately receiving the Rookie of the Year award. This season marked his sole full campaign with Philadelphia before being traded to the Milwaukee Bucks midway through his sophomore year.
