Daryl Morey explains bringing in Jalen McDaniels, trading Matisse Thybulle

CAMDEN, N.J.–The Philadelphia 76ers made one move on Thursday when they sent Matisse Thybulle to the Portland Trail Blazers in what grew to become a four-team deal that included the Charlotte Hornets and the New York Knicks.

The Sixers acquired Jalen McDaniels and a 2024 second-round pick via the Knicks from the Hornets and they also acquired a 2029 second-round pick from the Blazers. That selection from Portland will be the most favorable to the Hawks, Nets, or Hornets.

When it comes to McDaniels, he has yet to experience the playoffs as he is in his fourth season in the league, all with the Hornets.
