Report: Sixers have “seriously debated” trading for Chris Paul

Aside from one Keith Pompey note that Alex Rucker seems to be on his way out, it has been crickets on the in-depth evaluation of the Philadelphia 76ers front office. Yet, whether or not any shake-up takes place in upper management, the Sixers are going to have to deal with the current salary cap imprisonment of their own design. Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons will both be playing under their max contract extensions next season, while Tobias Harris and Al Horford will be making $34.4 million and $27.5 million, respectively. Aside from the WIP caller/national media hot take route of trading either Embiid or Simmons, any meaningful roster reconstruction has to come via moving Horford and/or Harris.
