The Sixers are looking for the next big move but that may not come in the form of a star. After missing out on the OG sweepstakes and with questions surrounding Siakam's desire to re-sign anywhere outside of Toronto next offseason, Philly might have to go the unexpected route by adding depth.

In this deal, The Sixers get 2 familiar wings, in Grant and Thybulle as well as a PG that fits exactly what they need in Brogdon. Jerami Grant gives you pretty much everything Harris did except he leans more towards a utility player than a scorer like Harris. Matisse will be more effective in this iteration of Philly's roster given that he would be paired with other elite wing defenders like RoCo, Grant and Melton. Lastly, Brogdon is the perfect guard to pair with Maxey. He's versatile and incredibly adaptable, he can play on and off ball, facilitate, shoot, defend and he adds size to their backcourt. He would ultimately round out Philly's roster very nicely.

As for the Blazers, they get 3 expirings and 2 1st round picks. It's very possible to still trade Harris off for yet another pick. He has attracted quite a few suitors lately according to multiple reports. I don't think anybody would question why the Blazers would want to trade their vets given they're in the middle of a rebuild. And with players like LaVine, Dejounte and Siakam on the market, their vets likely end up being the secondary and more affordable option for 'buying' teams like the 76ers.
