The Philadelphia 76ers were trying to trade up for a top pick in the 2015 NBA Draft and indicated a willingness to discuss Joel Embiid or any player on their team, an NBA source told Forbes.com's Mark Heisler.

While the souce is unnamed, Heisler has long covered Phil Jackson, and the New York Knicks will have one of the top selections in the draft. Heisler also has close connections to the Los Angeles Lakers.

Embiid was drafted third overall last June and has been out for the entire season following surgery on a broken bone in his right foot.

sorry @Malta looks like ya boy might be a bust. sixers already given up on him.

can't be true, just can't, I know about the long con, but I don't think I've ever heard of the 20 year rebuild plan

I think its more of the sixers seeing that Embiid might never get healthy and/or he doesn't have the drive to be great given his weight problem lately and his twitter personality.

Don't believe everything you read.

It said he listened to all offers not that he was looking to move him

I can't blame them. A guy that big who already has problems staying healthy. Don't want another Greg Oden/Yao Ming situation on your hands

I wouldn't be surprised if it was true, Hinkie's an addict for the tank. He about to set the 76ers back 1000 years.

Wiggins and Parker were both gone. At the time he was bpa and Im sure they were thinking about him longterm, idk how the 2015 NCAA season has been shaping up but maybe there's something they see in Okafor or Towns
