Nobody’s Talking About The REAL Winner Of This Sixers Trade
The Philadelphia 76ers just traded Eric Gordon to Memphis, and everyone thinks this is just another salary dump. But they’re missing the real story. While the media focuses on cap space and roster flexibility, one player’s entire career is about to change because of this move.
This 22-year-old came into the league on a two-way contract—basically the NBA saying “you’re not good enough.” But he grinded every single day, became essential to a team with championship aspirations, and now he’s about to get paid. He plays next to Joel Embiid despite not being a shooter, which tells you everything about his defense, effort, and basketball IQ.
With three roster spots now open, the Sixers can finally convert his two-way deal into a standard NBA contract. And if Daryl Morey plays this right, this kid could be the starting power forward on a team that’s suddenly dangerous when healthy.
So who is the real winner of this trade? Watch until the end to find out why this move might save Philadelphia’s entire season.
