Sixers will scrimmage at the Palestra on Sunday

We thought the epic "Battle for I-95" in September would be the last we'd see of NBA players at the Palestra, at least for a while.

We thought wrong.

New Philadelphia 76ers CEO Adam Aron announced to Reuben Frank of CSNPhilly.com last night that the Palestra will play host to a Sixers intra-squad scrimmage on Sunday from 6 to 8 p.m. Aron said the event will feature coach Doug Collins mic'd up, the dance team, the dunk squad (if you haven't been to the Wells Fargo Center since the Iverson trade, check them out), and a post-game autograph session with the players. Most importantly, IT'S FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. No tickets required, just first-come, first-serve.

This is also not the first time this semester that the Sixers have associated themselves with the Palestra. Back in October, the franchise introduced its new owners -- led by Wharton alum Joshua Harris -- in a press conference at "The Cathedral"
