ESPN Star Predicts Next NBA Player Who Could Request Trade

The Philadelphia 76ers went into the 2024-25 season with one of the most intriguing rosters in the NBA.

Paul George, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid made up one of the best big threes in the Eastern Conference.

That said, the team dealt with injuries and missed the NBA playoffs.

On Thursday, Kendrick Perkins (via ESPN's First Take) spoke about Maxey and the team.

Perkins: "At one point, we saw structure, we saw stability, we saw culture and then all of sudden since Daryl Morey has taken over this job, it's gotten worse... The Philadelphia 76ers are on the clock. They're on the clock when it comes down to Tyrese Maxey. If they keep trending in this direction of no culture and no stability, guess what? Tyrese Maxey is gonna want out of Philadelphia."
