After a chaotic and upsetting day for Sixers fans, more bad news may be on the horizon. The day began with videos of James Harden calling Sixers GM Daryl Morey a liar and saying that he’d never be a part of an organization with Morey ever again. Reports also surfaced from Adrian Wojnarowski claiming that Harden will try to make Sixers training camp so uncomfortable that they have no choice but to trade him.
Harden appears to be done with the Sixers due to Daryl Morey’s refusal to trade him or give him a max deal, both of which were promises from Morey.
Mere hours after these developments, Joel Embiid changed his Twitter/X profile picture, removed “PROCESSING…” from his bio, and removed the location “Philadelphia, PA” too.
I couldn’t find any archived webpages from Embiid’s Twitter account this week, but I and many Sixers fans on Twitter noticed the change today alongside his changing profile picture. It’s very likely all three coincided, and I remember seeing his old bio recently.
[hopefully that’s enough text to allow the post to go through?]
