The NBA's player participation policy is likely why the Sixers haven't shut down Paul George and/or Tyrese Maxey in pursuit of a full-scale tank yet.

President of Basketball Operations Daryl Morey took advantage of the cap space he accrued by bringing in Paul George and teaming him up with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. Time will tell if the move turned out to be the right one,

Philadelphia 76ers star big man Joel Embiid does it all. He steps out and knocks down jumpers. He punishes mismatches on the low block. He gets to the free-throw line and knocks them down consistently. He is an elite defender. He can score at all three levels and he does it at an efficient rate.
