The Philadelphia 76ers were talking about a potential trade with the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks as a trade partner is nothing new for the Sixers, as the team was reportedly discussing acquiring one of their guards at the trade deadline in a package deal that included Nik Stauskas and Robert Covington.
Just a week ago, The Vertical reported that the Hawks and Sixers were talking yet again, this time trying to whip up a deal that would send Nerlens Noel to Atlanta, and Jeff Teague to Philadelphia.
