NBA reporter Marc Stein believes there’s a strong likelihood that James Harden re-signs with Sixers.

Stein suggested that The Beard’s desire to win a championship might be stronger than wanting to return to Houston.

But there’s another reason why Harden is likely staying with the Sixers, Stein said.

“There is a loyalty factor for Harden to weigh after Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey spent the bulk of his first 15 months in the City of Brotherly Love trying to acquire him, finally succeeding in February 2022,"


Also saw John Clark’s tweet a few days ago

“An NBA league source tells me the desired outcome for the Sixers is still to do a deal with James Harden that makes sense in the short and long term for both sides”

Feels like he’s coming back now with the latest reports. Anything can happen especially if a team gives him crazy $ but all the recent buzz is seemingly pointing to the Sixers

Extending Maxey isn't an issue. He will get his huge contract regardless. It's just a matter of timing...if he waits until next off-season it's ideal for the team. If he wants it this off-season it messes up their cap situation more.

Max for Maxey either way though

Shake and Bake era is possibly over

He deserves a role where he'll consistently get real minutes. Smooth scorer who had flashes of being very good.

Shake needs an opportunity where he can play more

Trez also opted out of his option. Clear path for bball paul to return in the backup role. Hopefully he doesn’t leave

Trez can take a hike, that's not a loss.

Need Reed to return though for sure. He's developing into a nice player and is a good answer to back Embiid.

Yeah the Sixers should give him the qualifying offer I imagine. We’ll see if another team comes in and offers more but apparently Reed has been working out in the practice facility (according to kyle neubeck) and still has been with the team a lot so maybe he just expects to be back. Would suck if he left since they’ve put the time into him and finally developed into a decent backup C as you said

Hopefully they give him a massive extension so Embiid can be like nah I'm done.
