The Philadelphia 76ers have most of their players are approaching free agency this offseason, the main reason for their massive cap space heading into next season. The franchise is expected to be the main player this summer, due to its financial flexibility and internal strengths.
That said, their outgoing players can still provide value to the team, such as in outright trades or sign-and-trade scenarios for potentially large acquisitions. Here are four 76ers who fit the bill and could be traded this summer.
1.Paul Reed
Paul Reed was a promising prospect for the 76ers, with head coach Nick Nurse particularly having big plans for the young big man, but it’s safe to say at this point that the franchise just doesn’t have the fundamental patience to invest in a no-win situation. products as suggested by their current struggles trying to hold down the fort without Joel Embiid.
As a result, Reed, whose deal was not guaranteed for the next two seasons, could find himself on the trading block. Philly can guarantee his contract for 2024-25 and try to extract assets from another team that might want to go after him.
At just 24 years old, Reed still has plenty of time to prove his worth in the league. His motor, positional flexibility and physicality should be more than intriguing as a project for younger clubs around the league.
