The Sixers were one of the busiest teams this trade deadline, making several trades for both stars and role players alike. There was some surprise the team decided to go all-in by gambling on a few upcoming unrestricted free agents, but it is what happened after the trade deadline that shocked fans. With several players who looked like they could help the team available on the open market, the Sixers decided not to sign anyone and, instead, finish the season with the roster they had already constructed.
