Philadelphia Sixers appears to be saber rattling of a possible trade with the Phoenix Suns or other teams ahead of the NBA draft this offseason. Some basketball pundits that the Sixers’ recent interest to pick James Murray over Ben Simmons or Brandon Ingram may be a ruse to get other team’s attention, particularly the Suns, in a potential trade deal.
Philadelphia 76ers are likely to choose Australian-born LSU star player Ben Simmons over Duke’s Brandon Ingram after winning the first overall pick in the NBA draft lottery last Tuesday. After getting the top 2 overall pick, LA Lakers would likely get second pick favorite Ingram to their young roster under Luke Walton’s leadership.
Philadelphia 76ers are reportedly eyeing for offers that would help them rid of Jahlil Okafor despite a fine rookie season. Meanwhile, Okafor might just stay should Joel Embiid be permitted to play on the frontcourt with fellow rookies Okafor and Nerlens Noel.
