76ers have no interest in trading Tyrese Maxey, even for Lillard

Jake Fischer: Have heard pretty consistently that the Sixers have no interest in putting Tyrese Maxey in any trade conversations, including a potential pursuit for Damian Lillard. Philadelphia, and other teams, are of the belief the Miami Heat are Lillard’s preferred destination.

A 9-player 3-teamer that gets Dame to Philly and Harden to LAC….
Port gets Maxey, Mann, Zubac + Tobias expiring + dumps Nurk.
Phi gets Dame/Batum/Powell
LAC: Harden, Nurk
Port also gets: 2024/26/28 1st swaps w/ Philly, 2029 unprotected Philly 1st, 2028 unprotected LAC 1st. pic.twitter.com/HeRpSW3DoF1:03 PM

I think Philly would love to use Tyrese Maxey to get in on Damian Lillard, but Maxey obviously doesn’t fit on a team with Scoot, Sharpe and Simons.
So I jumped on the trade machine and Frankenstein’d up this bad boy. pic.twitter.com/yvkQYrVat612:54 PM

Clippers can only send one first round pick, Terence Mann/Bones Hyland and expirings. That’s not better than Miami’s offer.
Philly can put Maxey on the table but it was reported Lillard doesn’t want to go there.

Daryl Morey en estos momentos.
Se va Harden.
Podríamos traer a Damian Lillard.
Estamos dispuestos a canjear a Tyrese Maxey.
Si no armamos un equipo contendiente, se nos va Joel Embiid.

Brian Windhorst speculated that the Sixers are not planning to extend Maxey “because they might trade him. And it’s because he would be a potential piece in a Dame Lillard trade.”

Why would the Trail Blazers take Maxey as a centerpiece when they have Scoot and Simons? – 5:05 PM

“Wanna know why(Sixers won’t resign Maxey)? Because they might trade him.” – Brian Windhorst – 4:56 PM
Barry Jackson @flasportsbuzz
Windy says one reason Maxey not being extended by 76ers is because he might be needed in trade and to be a “potential piece in a Lillard trade”.. if Lillard ever asks for trade, he needs to ask for Heat specifically.
Stressful weeks ahead for Heat – 4:48 PM

Damian Lillard’s style of play is going to age really well. It already is. But so is Tyrese Maxey’s. You’re not THAT close to a title. – 3:56 PM

More on this storyline

The Sixers are not expected to sign Tyrese Maxey to an extension this offseason, according to sources familiar with the situation. This is not viewed as a condemnation of Maxey or a reflection of how the team values him, with the team continuing to view Maxey as a long-term core piece. -via Philly Voice / June 30, 2023
Ramona Shelburne: The Sixers are not planning to extend Tyrese Maxey this summer, sources told ESPN. He is still seen as a big part of their future, but the team wants to delay an extension for him to preserve flexibility. -via Twitter @ramonashelburne / June 30, 2023
