The 76ers find themselves in a different situation than at last year’s NBA trade deadline.

A season ago, general manager Sam Hinkie was looking to unload impending veteran free agents Evan Turner and Spencer Hawes (along with former Temple and Pennsbury High standout Lavoy Allen) to help ensure the Sixers would end up with one of the league’s worst records. They went 4-23 the rest of the way after a 15-40 start to finish 19-63 and landed the No. 3 overall pick (injured center Joel Embiid).

Heading into Thursday afternoon’s deadline, the Sixers don’t have any expiring players they’re willing to move of Turner’s or Hawes’ caliber.
