Can the Sixers trade Horford and Keep their First Round pick?

While the Sixers obviously haven’t made it public, barring a championship, the team will likely undergo a drastic shakeup for the third year in a row this offseason.

The Al Horford experiment simple hasn’t worked out though his best days as a Sixer may still be ahead of us. The reason for that is two-fold. First, Horford, unfortunately, has been such a bad fit so far, there’s really nowhere to go but up. Second, Horford is most likely to come off the bench for a while like he did before the season was suspended. While he’s been a much better fit in that role, $27 million is quite the price tag for a backup.
