Knicks trading for 76ers superstar could ‘absolutely’ happen

For the New York Knicks, the formula for success is straightforward: exercise patience and accumulate assets to potentially bring in a superstar to team up with Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle.

The Ideal Scenario: Embiid Joins the Knicks

In an ideal world, Philadelphia 76ers luminary Joel Embiid would join the Knicks, forming a formidable offensive triad. This dynamic trio would undoubtedly pose a potent challenge in the upcoming championship race.

Fresh off an MVP season, Embiid averages 33.1 points, 10.2 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 1.7 blocks per game while boasting a .548 shooting average.
