Which Sixers players have also played for the Hornets and Pelicans? NBA Crossover Grid answers for September 23

An all-new NBA Crossover Grid dropped on Sept. 23. The original basketball grid game continues to be popular among hoops fans who cannot wait for the 2023-24 season to start. Grid players can also now play previous puzzles using the new feature called "Grid History" which was introduced a couple of weeks ago.

Saturday's grid has two special categories: a player who recorded 15 or more assists in a game and a player who recorded six or more blocks in a game.

On that note, below are all the clues for Day 87 of the NBA Crossover Grid:

• Grid 1: Player who played for the Phoenix Suns and Charlotte Hornets
• Grid 2: Player who played for the Phoenix Suns and New Orleans Pelicans
• Grid 3: Player who played for the Phoenix Suns and had 15 or more assists in a single game
• Grid 4: Player who played for the Philadelphia 76ers and Charlotte Hornets
• Grid 5: Player who played for the Philadelphia 76ers and New Orleans Pelicans
• Grid 6: Player who played for the Philadelphia 76ers and had 15 or more assists in a single game

• Grid 8: Player who played for the New Orleans Pelicans and had 6 or more blocks in a single game
• Grid 9: Player who had 15 or more assists and 6 or more blocks in a single game

For Saturday's NBA Crossover Grid, let's try to answer grids 4 and 5: which Philadelphia 76ers players have also played for the Charlotte Hornets and New Orleans Pelicans?

Dwight Howard played for the Sixers during the 2020-21 season right after winning his first championship with the LA Lakers. He suited up for the Hornets in the 2017-18 season after getting traded by his hometown team, the Atlanta Hawks.

Meanwhile, Jrue Holiday played for both the Sixers and Pelicans. Holiday started in Philly and became an All-Star there in 2013. He was traded to the Pelicans before the 2013-14 season, where he became one of the best defensive guards in the league.
