PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Philadelphia Eagles' whirlwind Super Bowl celebration continued at the Wells Fargo Center Tuesday night.

Several Eagles were honored during the Philadelphia 76ers game including guard Brandon Brooks and offensive tackle Halapoulivaati Vaitai.

They were invited to ring the ceremonial bell prior to the game.

Action News sports reporter Jeff Skversky caught up with Vaitai to talk about the love the team has been getting.

"It's great, just to have that trophy here with us, to be the first team in franchise history to win the Super Bowl, I'm just super grateful," Vaitai said.

The 76ers defeated the Washington Wizards 115-102.
