As you already know, the Sixers play well when Kendall Jenner is in town.

I believe they are now 13-2 with Ben Simmons’ girlfriend in attendance, though I admit I stopped keeping track about two weeks ago.

But anyway, I think Kendall will be in town tonight. She’s on the east coast, and she appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres show earlier today, where she was asked about dating the Sixers’ All-Star:

“76ers… that’s a weird name.”

Yes, totally weird name. It just happens to be the year the country was formed via the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

But Ellen says she doesn’t know much about basketball, so we can let it slide..

Kendall seems to be a bit shy when it comes to discussing Ben, but as long as the Sixers keep winning when she’s in town, it’s all good. Maybe one of these days we can get her on the Crossing Broadcast, featuring Russ Joy and Kevin Kinkead.
