Daryl Morey has begun to shake up the 76ers.
Before Wednesday night’s NBA Draft 2020, the 76ers traded Al Horford, a 2025 first-round pick, a 2020 second-round pick and the draft rights to Vasilije Micic to the Thunder for Danny Green and Terrance Ferguson, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported. The first-round pick is “lightly protected,” according to the report, while the second-round pick is the No. 34 selection in Wednesday’s draft, adding to the Thunder’s haul of picks.
The 34-year-old Horford signed a four-year, $109 million contract in Philadelphia last summer but his first season with the 76ers was a rough one. The former All-Star averaged 11.9 points, 6.8 rebounds and four assists per game as the 76ers fizzled out in the Eastern Conference and suffered a first-round playoff sweep at the hands of the Celtics.
The cost-cutting move could help free up the 76ers to make a run at James Harden. Morey, the 76ers new president of basketball operations, traded for Harden when he was the general manager of the Rockets. Harden has now reportedly requested a trade, and while his preferred destination is reportedly the Nets, a reunion with Morey in Philadelphia is not out of the question.
The 33-year-old Green, meanwhile, has had a busy few days. Coming off winning an NBA title with the Lakers, he was reportedly set to be traded to the Thunder along with the No. 28 pick for Dennis Schroder.
