[Philly Sixers Galaxy] Keep an eye on the #Sixers targeting players at the trade deadline who are eligible for large extensions next offseason, a person familiar with the team’s thinking said.



"Jonathan Kuminga, Trey Murphy III, and Moses Moody are possible targets, the source indicated, as team ownership is willing to enter the second apron moving forward to go all in for a championship."

    I don’t know/care who this is coming from, just give me Kuminga or Murphy III and we’re fuckin golden

  2. The key part is, you don’t have to offer an extension. Basically a rental. We don’t need another Tobias max contract for the next 5 years

    Makes sense. The best players in the salary range of the KJ deal are guys still on their rookie contracts.

    The Sixers do have really good draft capital actually to facilitate a trade should they choose to empty out some of those clippers picks.

    They have the potential to go big game hunting still, but on a young guy

    Would also have the benefit of forming a young duo with Maxey that can carry on even as Embiid/PG age out

    Tari Eason is a name that interests me. Rabid rebounder, can hit the occasional 3, was like a 95th percentile defender in EPM, but the Rockets might want to consolidate their roster to open up minutes for other guys and he’s coming off a big injury

    Call me crazy, but I can see a world where the Pelicans choose Jones & Ingram, leaving Murphy III as the odd man out. Especially if we can entice them with McCain + 1sts

    Murphy would be ideal but just think about how good it would be for us all to fill our Kum Buckets for the Kum God

    Morey set it up well to be very aggressive at the deadline. It’s gonna be nice
