NBA Trade Rumors: 5 players unlikely to be back with the Philadelphia 76ers for the 2020-21 season 

#3- Shake Milton

Boston Celtics v Philadelphia 76ers - Game Three

Predominantly a bench player, Shake Milton burst into the scene with his performances for the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA bubble, starting at point guard instead of Ben Simmons, who took up the power forward position. The experiment was successful, and Milton was lauded for his playmaking. However, with Doc Rivers now at the helm, there are doubts surrounding his future.

NBA trade rumors indicated that Milton could be on his way out, with Ben Simmons set to play as the team's point guard again. He was impressive in the Orlando bubble and could attract multiple suitors in the off-season.

#4- Alec Burks

Golden State Warriors v Atlanta Hawks

After spending 7 years with the Utah Jazz since being selected as a first-round pick in 2011, Alec Burks has mostly been used as an NBA trade chip between teams. However, with the Philadelphia 76ers, who he joined after leaving Golden State Warriors, Burks settled as a bench player who provided a scoring punch when the starters rested.

Despite his good performances last season, Burks is not expected to be around next year as the Philadelphia 76ers will be looking to be active in the NBA trade market, and he can be used as a sweetener in a deal for a star. Burks' biggest asset is shooting, and multiple NBA teams will be looking to add him to a team-friendly deal.

#5- Norvel Pelle

Philadelphia 76ers Media Day

A 2-way contract player, Norvel Pelle is arguably the most expendable star on the Philadelphia 76ers roster. On February 7, 2020, Pelle's deal was converted to a standard contract from his 2-way deal, and he averaged 2 points and 3 rebounds along with a block in the limited minutes he got with the team.

Doc Rivers likes to field a small-ball line-up, and that could mean the end of Pelle's Philadelphia 76ers tenure. The 76ers are looking for ways to acquire a third star, and Pelle might either be used in an NBA trade or could be cut from the roster to save cap space.
