James Harden has finally been traded, as the Sixers reportedly sent him, PJ Tucker, and Filip Petrusev to the Los Angeles Clippers overnight for a slew of players and picks.
The Sixers are receiving Marcus Morris, Robert Covington, Nicolas Batum, KJ Martin, 2026 and 2028 first-round picks, two second-round picks and a pick swap to 76ers for James Harden and PJ Tucker.
"Their role player type dudes and Batum was a really good player back in the day, but he's really, really old," DeCamara said, reacting to the news at the top of Tuesday's 94WIP Morning Show with Jon Ritchie. "The players they got aren't really what matters here. What matters are the picks that they got and ultimately, potentially what matters most is what they'll do with these picks—not so much making picks, but making trades.
"The Sixers actually got more than I expected them to get.
"Absolutely!" Ritchie agreed. "We just opened up a whole world of options for Daryl Morey and the moves that will be."
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the assets the Sixers are receiving "give them a chance to pursue another high-level guard."
