The 2012–13 Philadelphia 76ers season was the 74th season of the franchise, 64th in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 50th in Philadelphia. Before the start of the season the team made a major multiple team trade to get center Andrew Bynum from the Los Angeles Lakers (giving up the eventual 2015 NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala). However Bynum missed the entire regular season due to a foot injury sustained while bowling, and would never end up playing in a Sixers uniform. They finished with a record of 34–48 and would miss the post season in Doug Collins' 3rd and final season as head coach.
