17. Harris has made it clear the name "Commanders" is here to stay.

Sunday

And with the success of the team since he bought it, there is little reason to think that's going to change.

And as far as worst owner ever, you must not know about Dan Snyder.

PS - for the record, the 76ers sucked for the eight or so years before Harris bought the team, missing the playoffs half of those years and losing in the first round the other times. Harris and his group intentionally let the team tank for several years, giving them better draft pick odds. The team then made the playoffs eight straight years and while they never got past the second round of the playoffs, more often than not they made it to the second round. They stunk this season, a situation that undoubtedly had several causes, not the least of which is that an injured Joel Embid only started 19 games out of 82.
