Former NBA star Jameer Nelson is reportedly rising up the ranks in the Philadelphia 76ers' front office. According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Sixers promoted Nelson to assistant general manager under GM Elton Brand and team president Daryl Morey.

Brian Windhorst weighs in on the 76ers after the draft lottery, including Daryl Morey's "If Joel comes back" comments about Embiid.

However, President of Basketball Operations Daryl Morey had a bold claim on the recovering Embiid when he hopped on the "Rights to Ricky Sanchez" podcast:

76ers general manager Daryl Morey had a simple response about the trade rumors surrounding center Joel Embiid. Although the Philadelphia 76ers had an underwhelming season, general manager Daryl Morey has been asked about the possibility of trading Joel Embiid. He gave a simple and succinct answer.

FS1's Nick Wright proposed a trade that would send Giannis Antetokounmpo to the 76ers in exchange for an intriguing package.

Nelson had been the general manager of the G League-affiliate Delaware Blue Coats since 2023, and also was regularly involved with the Sixers’ front office.

The Philadelphia 76ers did not meet their expectations last season, and one of the main reasons was injuries. Joel Embiid only played 19 games last season because of his knee injury, and it’s uncertain when he’ll be able to get back on the court.

The Sixers President of Basketball Operations shared his thoughts on Paul George's debut season with the franchise.
