Another trade deadline has come again and for the third straight season, the Sixers used it to make a few ancillary moves around the margins of the roster. They added two guards well under the age of 35, but also shipped out a young forward potentially on the cusp of a breakout.
Their three moves made them younger on the aggregate while also ducking the luxury tax and getting under the first apron. Despite a disastrous season the team is still committed to its core Big 3 moving forward. So it’s time to grade this year’s moves, both for how they impact the rest of this season and the team’s long-term outlook.
