The 76ers announced over the weekend that the franchise had no intention of trading James Harden, instead ending trade talks with other teams involving the former All-Star guard.
On Monday, a video circulated of Harden addressing fans and media in China, where he called team executive Daryl Morey a liar and declared that he’d never play for a franchise that Morey was a part of.
Fast-forward to Tuesday, and star center and reigning league MVP Joel Embiid scrubbed all references of the 76ers from his social media profile on X, the network formerly known as Twitter.
