After taking a look at this current iteration of the Philadelphia 76ers roster, one can safely say that Daryl Morey definitely showed some degree of favoritism. He will never admit it, but there are certain players who are still part of the lineup simply because of their lasting relationships with the longtime executive.
Case in point? Look no further than Eric Gordon, who is now in his 18th season as a professional. he is going to hit 37 years of age in a couple of months, yet the front office willingly handed him another one-year deal during the summer despite everyone expecting him to be one of the odd men out among the team’s then-impending free agents.
