The Philadelphia 76ers’ prayers may be getting answered.
Matt Moore of The Action Network reports Wednesday that the Sacramento Kings are a potential landing spot for 76ers forward Tobias Harris if Philadelphia re-engages in trade talks for him. The 76ers are known to be shopping Harris and the $77 million he has left on his contract.
Harris, still only 29 years old, remains a gifted scorer and rebounder who also averaged a career best in assists last season. However, his scoring averages fell to 16.9 points per game in the playoffs, and that was even despite Joel Embiid missing some time due to injury.
The Kings do have a lot of cap space that they can absorb Harris into. The team can also offer Harris a higher spot up the totem pole next to De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis. But on top of Harris, the Kings may also be eyeing another castoff of sorts.
