AD’s Exit Plan & Sixers’ Embiid Dilemma | Philadelphia 76ers News

NBA rumors swirl as Anthony Davis could be on the move if the Wizards stumble early in the 2026-27 season, with the Sixers the most likely suitor—especially with LeBron James’ name in the mix. The duo’s championship history together makes any reunion tempting, even after AD’s Mavericks stint. But trading Joel Embiid? That’s a tough pill for Philly to swallow—his massive contract and elite scoring make him a cornerstone, not a trade chip. Meanwhile, the Wizards, still untested with AD, likely won’t gamble on Embiid’s hefty deal. Both teams are stuck between ambition and reality: Philly’s betting on Embiid’s health, while Washington’s betting on steady growth—not a high-stakes gamble.
