With Houston actively shopping Jeremy Lin so they can free up some cap space. It seems that the Philadeplhia 76’ers have some interest in Lin according to ESPN’s Marc Stein.
Sources told ESPN.com that the Sixers, who have ample room on their payroll to absorb Lin’s contract, have emerged as a leading contender to take on Lin in a trade that sends no salary back to the Rockets, which would enable the Rockets to extend a rich offer in free agency to either Carmelo Anthony or Chris Bosh.
I don’t see any need for Philly to get another point guard but they got some crazy cap room so why not?
