Why This Trade Would Benefit The Philadelphia 76ers

The 76ers have had trouble advancing in the postseason in recent years. Their lineup configuration has been troubling but that has changed this season. The front office could continue to make big moves in hopes of coming out of the East this season.

Daryl Morey came in and made immediate improvements. He acquired Seth Curry and Danny Green to put shooters on the perimeter for Simmons and Embiid. Doc Rivers also came in as head coach. This has also had immediate impacts.

The addition of Fournier would give them a new dynamic. When he is on the floor, Fournier would be the fourth option for Philadelphia, which is crazy to think about. The steps that the 76ers have taken this season are obvious and they might not be done just yet.
