There are whispers across the NBA that the Philadelphia 76ers could also be trying to type the league’s subsequent superteam.
ESPN’s Zach Lowe mentioned on his newest Lowe Post podcast that there’s a principle across the league that James Harden will decline his participant possibility for subsequent season, re-sign for lower than the max, and the Sixers will dump Tobias Harris to be able to have room for a max or near-max star.
Harris is incomes a whopping $36 million this season and is below contract till the tip of 2023-24.
After all, the Sixers’ potential third star will must be completely satisfied spending a minimum of a while off the ball.
Harden and Embiid each command plenty of the ball and there are already questions being requested concerning how these two will co-exist, even with no third star within the combine.
76ers normal supervisor Daryl Morey is unlikely to be too fearful although. His angle has all the time been that you need to get whichever stars you possibly can (and as many as you possibly can) after which determine the remaining out later.
Whereas many could have anticipated the Harden acquisition to be a case of “mission achieved” for Morey, he should still have yet one more ace up his sleeve if the rumblings across the league are true.
