Sixers LAST MINUTE Trade Targets REVEALED…| Sixers News

Finally we have some concrete names that the Sixers may be interested from a trade perspective after all this theorizing all these rumors all these Whispers we have set in stone a report from Jake Fischer of Yahoo sports identifying who these Sixers may be targeting at the deadline I want to

Break down those specific names and how I feel their fit is on these Sixers in this specific video but before I dive fully into it I do want to make sure you guys are smashing that subscribe button that at this point in time 76.7% of you guys have not subscribed to the channel

Just yet do greatly appreciate the 23 .4% of you that have already joined the Sixers digest family but this is the crunch time for Sixers season we are heading for this final get pass the traded in line and enter the playoff push hopes are still open that Joell

Embiid will return and I am hopeful that there will be a championship contending team built Sur to surround him when he does step back on the floor and Jake Fischer sheds some light on who those players could potentially be so without further Ado dive fully into it begin

With this report from Jake here who writes even in the wake of Joel embiid’s knee surgery the the Sixers are hoping to move a future swap to acquire more imminent first round pick sources said then the first round Capital that Philadelphia currently has available the Sixers soonest pick they can trade won’t

Come until 2026 so while Philadelphia’s three picks it yielded in return for James Harden would suggest these Sixers have plenty ammunition to go out and acquire a meaningful player Philadelphia seems to be priority prioritizing ways to buy now while maintaining future flexibility so just a quick note on that

Very clear what these sixes are trying to do as far as shift maybe a 2028 first round pick for more pressing 2024 2025 first round pick in an effort to make a more cohesive and appealing draft Capital just offer two teams makes sense from the standpoint of teams wanting a

More of a win now piece you know it’s obviously much more appealing to have that draft pick right in front of you so s just trying to climb that ladder a little bit and that does mean in my mind that there’s likely a deal in place that

They just have to get to a specific number or set year that they want that draft pick in now to finish up this thought here fiser rights want to again Philadelphia is exploring conversation with a variety of teams but one known Target for these Sixers is Pacers guard

Buddy heeld League sources told Yahoo sports heal’s $8.5 million salary would be a match for several of the Sixers expiring contracts and his expiring deal wouldn’t add future financial burden onto the Philadelphia onto Philadelphia’s clean cap sheet for this off season as these Sixers have left rival teams with the impression that

They are still war of taking back long-term salary at this juncture so I’ve talked plenty on here about the six years cap space plan how they wanted keep all Financial options available this offseason frankly I don’t fully I don’t fully agree with this method because of the reasons that we just

Don’t see stars switch teams or notable players switch teams in free agency these days that is so much more common part of a trade package or a way that works for both teams similar to what James Harden did by opting into his contract or what the Hawks are currently

Doing with dejonte Murray Murray who has not even kicked into his extension they signed last off season but the Hawks knowing that they would rather that be the case so they can at least get something return for him rather than just allowing him to walk with things

Not working out but the name that is mentioned here for the Sixers is Buddy heeld now buddy heeld is a guy that has been a forever almost sixer that I feel like we’ve talked about him in trade rumors year in and year out and for good

Reason that he absolutely would be a fit on the Sixers roster now to dive into what buddy exactly brings to the table taking a look at his stats this year on the season averaging 12 points per game seeing his minutes and opportunities cut back a little bit going from 31 minutes

Per game last year to 25 7 that is the fewest minutes per game that he’s played since the 27 2018 season back in Sacramento so kind of falling out of favor there there has been a little bit of some odd Twitter Antics going on with Buddy heeld a burner account accusation

Talking about him not wan to be Indiana all these things but the bottom line is the guy can still hoop and to look more at these stats from Beyond the three-point Arc this year a little bit of a Down year by his standards at 38.2% but still at 6.9 attempts which is

Ridiculous in the span of 25.7 minutes per game and through his career he is a proven shooter a 40.1% three-point shooter on 7.7 three-point attempts per game you even want to look a little bit further back that just last season shooting 42.5% on 8.5 three-point attempts per

Game and he’s not just a shooter that you’re looking at these stats this season also averaging 3.2 rebounds 2.6 assists I do think budd’s a better overall basketball player than he gets credit for that he can put the ball on the floor a little bit he can defend a

Little bit not a great defender can pass a little bit and my biggest Point here and this applies to both names that I want to bring up in this conversation the Sixers desperately need three-point shooting that when you look at the League standards across the NBA six

Sixers as a team ranking 26th in the league in three-point attempts per game now this is not be cure all that you need to be shooting a high volume of three points to be a winning franchise obviously each roster is constructed differently and when you are built

Around a team like Joel embiid who’s very mid-range heavy and very post heavy in his shot diet you’re never going to be leading the packed for three-point attempts but it is important to have balance and frankly there has not been enough you want to look at that recent

Brooklyn Net’s loss that the Nets attempted more than double the three-point attempts the Sixers did in that game and it is simple math when you’re trading two points for three points you’re going to fall apart in a game or you’re going to fall fall behind in that specific matchup so it’s far too

Regular of an event that Sixers are outshot from a three-point attempt standpoint on a game by- game basis and the solution to that is to bring in a guy like buddy Hee Now the other name that Jake fiser brings up that brings some similar strengths and weakness but

I do want to talk about him individually here is buan bogdanovich and fiser rights quote another Target for the Sixers is Pistons guard buan bogdanovich sourcea said who is on the books for 20 million this season but has just $2 million in guaranteed for 2024 to 2025

Detroit has long shown an interest in a reunion with Tobias Harris League sources told Yahoo sports but in any deal where the Sixers bring back bonovich it would seem Philadelphia doesn’t want to part with Harris so an interesting little note there there the part the ash that I’ll throw in is I

Think the most likely trade candidate from the Sixers perspective would be Marcus Morris in both these situations him carrying just over a $17 million cap hit that you can add a little bit I believe you need for bogdanovich for buddy you can just straight up trade Marcus Morris and then add whatever

Draft capital is necessary to get the deal done but bogdanovich brings a lot of similar strengths and weaknesses that once again just as the case with Buddy he would immediately be the best shooter on this Sixers team to take a look at his stats at a whole this season

Averaging 20.2 points per game also adding 3.4 rebounds 2.5 assists he’s shooting 41.5% from Beyond the three-point arc on 7.4 threo attempts per game which is a career high for bogdanovich this is a guy that even at age 34 is putting up close to career numbers last season was a 21.6 point per

Game scorer now we know age is not the best thing here that this is a guy on the downside of his career but he’s going to have a more limited role in a Philadelphia uniform that he’s not going to be asked to be getting the amount of

Shots and creating his own shots in the same way he currently is in Detroit now bonovich I get this was a couple years ago but I do think he deserves credit for at a point in time being a relatively solid Defender that back in the Jazz days when those teams were

Constructed around Donovan Mitchell and Rudy gobear that buyon bogdanovich was asked to be the guy test with guarding the Kevin Durant of the world with the primary offensive weapon on the opposing team I’m not saying he’s kawii Leonard or some defensive stalworth but he is a guy that is very competitive he will

Compete on the defensive side of the ball and I still think he plays with a fire even in the the the days of playing in Detroit that even as frustrating it is with this historic losing streak there’s been games that I flipped on and I’ve been been impressed with kind of

The spark that he’s bringing especially given the circumstances so when you keep in mind bringing that to a contender like the Sixers that’s something that’s really appealing to me he does have more size than buddy they both have some similar strengths as a potential movement shooter a PO potential guy that

Can come off pin Downs just get free opportunities and let it fly and both both guys are guys that can absolutely catch red be red hot Catch Fire and have a 20 plus Point per game on just about an any night basis that they each have that ability to explode get hot and

Really change the game from a Sixers perspective now one of the things that I want to note here is as we get so close to this deadline as is rapidly approaching here these Sixers have two things that they need to accomplish number one is you have to have you have

To add guys that help this team stay afloat while Joel embiid recovers from his miniscus surgery but you also have to have guys that are a part of the playoff rotation and ceiling razors as it pertains to Championship contenders I think both these guys fit that ability

That we know how effective Shooters can be when playing alongside Joel embiid think about JJ reick think about Seth Curry think about georgees neang even Marco bellelli if you want to go back that far orsan ilova these are guys that are good shooters that became great Shooters when playing alongside a guy

With the gravity of Joel embiid I think Buddy heeld and buan bogdanovich are each guys that could see their games taken to new levels when playing next to a superstar like that now it’s obviously going to start without embiid on the floor but that only adds to the reason

That there needs to be more scoring that these are both guys that can get red hot and see their numbers pop in a way that will be necessary to the Sixers team so it’s great to hear that Daryl Mor is at least being involved in the trade

Whispers it’s at least to see these it’s great to at least see these Sixers have their names attached to specific targets and frankly guys that I think could help this team in a major way so I’m thrilled to see these names pop it through if we reach the point past Thursday’s deadline

Where there are no significant deals done or or no players that I believe help this team it’s a massive failure on these Sixers and that if Joel intends on coming back this season making a playoff run as all signs are pointing to be the case that you have to make sure the

Roster around him is built to help that even in the best of circumstances Joel emed his healthiest at this team playing his best ball I still think that they were a piece away from a true Championship Contender so you better find a way to get that piece while the

Big Fell’s resting and he better be ready to ball when he comes back with a little bit of a reduced role on him that maybe he doesn’t have to score 70 points on a night basis for them to actually get the win so shout out to Joel embiid

For seeming to try and muster through this covery prayers up that this does go as seamless as possible hopefully that Daryl Morty can reach the Finish Line on one of these deals and hopefully that buan bogdanovich or buddy heeld could be the caliber of shooter to take this

Sixers team to another level let me know your guys thoughts in the comments on both of those targets who would you prefer out of buddy or buy on you can make the case for both frankly I’m a little partial to Buddy heel that I’m

Just a fan of his game in a way that I would love to see it in a Sixers uniform but I would not be mad we either one of these guys and even happier if it’s both of these guys so let me know your guys thoughts make sure you’re smashing that
