Sixers Want Another All-Star Guard

The Philadelphia 76ers want to flip the assets in the James Harden trade to get another All-Star guard to pair alongside Joel Embiid and their backcourt.

Per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, if Philadelphia does send Harden to the Los Angeles Clippers, then they’ll use L.A.’s assets to secure a big replacement for Harden.

However, because the asking price is significantly higher than what the market commands, it’ll most likely be a slower process and go well into the season before the first deal comes together.

Daryl Morey is motivated to keep this Philly team strong, and even stronger, for a push for a deep playoff run. They consider themselves a championship-contending franchise.

According to multiple reports, the Philadelphia 76ers will be signing Reggie Jackson after he clears waivers from the Charlotte Hornets. This is the second time in two years Jackson has been waived by the Hornets.

The Denver Nuggets traded the 34-year-old to Charlotte to shed his salary, which saw them getting two second-rounders from Denver to take the money.

Philadelphia needed to fill their hole in the backcourt, depth-related concerns, and they found Jackson to be the right match.

Jackson averaged 10.2 points and 3.8 assists in all 82 games last season for the Nuggets.

Sixers Want Both Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Paul George

According to Marc Stein, the Philadelphia 76ers are working a dream scenario where they can land both Paul George and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Both are unrestricted free agents.

Caldwell-Pope opted out of his $15.4 million option with the Denver Nuggets, and it doesn’t look like he will return to the franchise. Calvin Booth is preparing for the team to lose one of the best 3-And-D wing players, but they’ll have some money to make moves.

For Philly, they have the cap space to land both and give George the maximum contract he desperately wants. The Sixers can offer George a four-year, $212 million deal. It’s only $9 million less than what the Los Angeles Clippers can offer him; however, Trent Redden does not want to pay George that money.

According to Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes, Paul George is reportedly a member of Philadelphia. Thus, it looks like the door to an L.A. return is ruled out. If they can get KCP, that would be a tremendous bonus.

Tobias Harris Set To Leave Philly, Teams Lining Up For Him

According to Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes, the Philadelphia 76ers are officially done with their partnership involving Tobias Harris. Multiple teams want the veteran forward.

The Dallas Mavericks, New Orleans Pelicans, Detroit Pistons, San Antonio Spurs, and Utah Jazz are all interested in him. For them, they all have the money to lure him to their franchise.

Philly will use all their cap space to reconstruct their roster around Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. This comes after knowing Harris will not return to Daryl Morey’s franchise.
