The Philadelphia 76ers are still working though some early season issues as they continue to get everybody on the same page. They had a ton of expectations for the season, but they are sitting at 7-7 with some issues to address on both ends of the floor.
With the early questions to answer, president Daryl Morey is not one to just sit back and not do anything about his team. Philadelphia is expected to contend for a title and their play in the early going is not going to get it done.
Therefore, some changes might have to be made, and per Shams Charania of The Athletic, Tobias Harris has once again had his name floated around in trade rumors:
76ers officials have begun their usual check-ins with teams across the league ahead of the Dec. 15 date for players who signed contracts in the offseason to be traded, when trade talks begin to intensify. Philadelphia’s Tobias Harris has come up in the 76ers’ conversations with clubs so far, league sources said.
Harris has been a model role player and a model teammate for the Sixers. The guy always keeps his head down and he works and he adjusts to whatever role is thrown at him. He’s averaging 14.7 points and 6.2 rebounds while shooting 46.2% from the floor and 39.7% from deep and providing some more than solid defense.
If the Sixers do trade Harris, it will have to be for a player who will fit a role on this team as well as Harris has during his time in Philadelphia.
