Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid has emerged as a top trade candidate following LeBron James‘ arrival, according to CBS Sports.
If the combination of Tyrese Maxey, Jaylen Brown, LeBron James, and Embiid fails to gel quickly, Embiid is likely to be the first trade option for a center, especially for the Washington Wizards’ Anthony Davis. This is particularly true if concerns about Embiid’s health continue to persist.
LeBron and his agent Rich Paul anticipated this scenario well before James’ move to Philadelphia and are determined to ensure that the final stages of LeBron’s career are not dependent on Embiid’s fitness.
