The Philadelphia 76ers are making big moves this offseason as they aim to solidify their position as a top contender in the Eastern Conference. Despite facing setbacks with Joel Embiid’s knee injury, the Sixers are not holding back in their pursuit of star players.
According to Sixers insider Keith Pompey, the team’s president of basketball operations, Daryl Morey, has a shortlist of targets that includes some of the biggest names in the league. While Paul George is reportedly their top priority, the Sixers are also eyeing LeBron James, OG Anunoby, Jimmy Butler, Zach LaVine, and Brandon Ingram.
The potential addition of any of these stars could significantly bolster the Sixers’ roster and elevate them to championship contention. James and George could become free agents, while Anunoby will enter free agency with the possibility of staying with the New York Knicks. Butler, LaVine, and Ingram have all been linked to trade rumors in recent months.
With ample financial resources and assets at their disposal, the Sixers are in a strong position to make a major splash in the offseason. Fans can expect a busy and exciting summer as Morey and the front office work towards bringing another star player to the City of Brotherly Love. Stay tuned to see which of these coveted players will don the iconic 76ers jersey next season.
