Stay or go: Predicting what Sixers will do with their 5 free agents

Here are some predictions on what the Philadelphia 76ers will do with their five free agents heading into the 2022 offseason.

As the Philadelphia 76ers navigate the offseason, there are only so many avenues the team can use to improve.

At the moment, the Sixers have the $6.4 million taxpayer mid-level exception they can use in free agency. They could also gain the full $10.3 million mid-level exception if they cut Danny Green. Such a move would make sense since Green will miss most, if not all, of the upcoming season due to a torn ACL and LCL.

There is also the big James Harden dilemma. The Sixers acquired the future Hall of Famer at the deadline. He has a $47 million player option for the 2022-23 season, but can the Sixers negotiate with him to get a deal done that can also improve the roster?

Free agency in the NBA will begin sometime around when the new league year begins on July 1 — no official date has been given yet — and the Sixers have five free agents according to Spotrac.
