Another player wants to leave Embiid.

Signing contracts and demanding trades to play on the team you want is the new trend. Consequences of giving too much power to the players

He's actually the complete opposite of Heat culture. The Heat wouldn't see much value in him.

Damn, not a good look. He should give Nurse a shot til at least the trade deadline. I think Nurse can unlock the full potential of this Philly squad. But hey, harden gonna harden and philly gonna philly.

Likely Clippers bound. He’s on paper a great fit for them. But the mindset and ego of those stars is awful. Not winners.

It’s likely gonna net them Morris, Powell, Mann and a pick or two.
