The Philadelphia 76ers are having a rough season—and their own fans made sure they knew it at WWE SmackDown.

During the March 7th episode of SmackDown at the Wells Fargo Center, Paul George and several members of the 76ers were spotted in the crowd. George, proudly holding a 76ers NBA Legacy Title, was all smiles—until the arena erupted in boos.

Yes, the Philadelphia crowd turned on their own team.

The reaction wasn’t exactly shocking, given how brutal this season has been for Philly’s squad. Sitting at 21-41 and ranked fourth in the Atlantic Division, this team was supposed to be a serious contender in the Eastern Conference after landing Paul George. Instead, they’ve been a massive disappointment, and their hometown fans are not letting them off the hook.
