Khani1 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Not sure I want him at this point. He is old, injury prone, and not as good as he use to be. I’m sure the contract will be hefty. But if he is the all in move, I understand it. And then a lot of picks to make trades. If it happens, at least Embiid will have a teammate to hang out with when they both get injured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We saw how the team looked with Joel, Maxey and decent role players/depth. Gotta get creative with trades using our picks. Our 3rd best player doesn’t need to be a star, just a really dependable guy who can score at least 18ppg and make an impact on both sides. Of the current players, I’m only interested in signing Hield, Oubre, and Lowry. Oubre and Lowry if the price is right. Oubre is valuable as a 7th man but gets exposed as a starter in long stretches. Lowry is a smart player and can be the back up or play with Maxey at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best wing defender in the league Do the Pelicans really want to get off Herb Jones and play more Trey Murphy. I highly doubt it and he is the only guy that I can think of that fits a role. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazletonEagle Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 The NBA has announced that the NBA G League Ignite will cease operations after the current season. The league said that "the decision to end the program comes amid the changing basketball landscape, including the NCAA’s Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) policy and the advent of collectives and the transfer portal." Nine Ignite veterans are currently in the NBA, including key contributors Dyson Daniels (New Orleans Pelicans), Jalen Green (Houston Rockets), Scoot Henderson (Portland Trail Blazers) and 2022 NBA champion Jonathan Kuminga (Golden State Warriors). "Four years ago, we started Ignite to fill a void in the basketball landscape, and I’m proud of the contributions we were able to make to that ecosystem,” said Sharif Abdur-Rahim. "With the changing environment across youth and collegiate basketball, now is the right time to take this step. I want to extend my sincere gratitude to general manager Anthony McClish, head coach Jason Hart and their staff and to each player who wore an Ignite jersey. As ever, the G League’s commitment to developing top NBA talent and helping players achieve their NBA dreams is unwavering.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazletonEagle Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Joel Embiid is likely to return to the Philadelphia 76ers lineup in the regular season, according to Nick Nurse. "I think there's a very good likelihood that he will return before the play-in, playoff," said Nurse on Wednesday. Nurse added that there is still no exact timetable for Embiid's return. "He's on the court, as you guys know, and we still don't have a timeline for his return," added Nurse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
