The San Antonio Spurs could revisit LaMarcus Aldridge trade discussions this offseason.

Near the 2020 trade deadline the Spurs were rumored to have discussed Aldridge trade scenarios.

Rival executives suggest the Spurs “overplayed their hand thinking they were supposed to get some giant package for him,” one NBA executive said. 

Aldridge is due to make $24 million next season before he hits free agency in 2021.

One agent suggests the Spurs could trade Aldridge back to the Portland Trail Blazers.

Elton Brand publicly confirmed the Philadelphia 76ers have no intention of trading either Joel Embiid or Ben Simmons this offseason.

"I'm not looking to trade Ben or Joel," said Brand. "I'm looking to complement them better."

The 76ers fired Brett Brown on Monday and the conventional wisdom has been that the team would see if their next head coach can figure out how to maximize Embiid and Simmons together before making a major move.

With the 76ers having both Al Horford and Tobias Harris under contracts that will be difficult to trade, it is likely they will need to change their schemes with current personnel rather than a wholesale change of the roster surrounding Embiid and Simmons.

The Philadelphia 76ers are considered likely to retain both Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons this offseason.

Embiid and Simmons are 26 and 24, respectively, and each have multiple seasons remaining on their current contracts.

The 76ers will likely see if their next coach can figure out a way for Embiid and Simmons to be maximized before breaking up their core. 

Joel Embiid wondered aloud about his future with the Philadelphia 76ers following their elimination from the playoffs in four games by the Boston Celtics.

"I don't make the decisions. I'm here in Philly. Whatever happens, happens," said Embiid, responding to a question about uncertainty with the franchise. "I've always said that I want to end my career here, and if it happens, good. If it doesn't happen, well, you move on and all that stuff."

Embiid has three years and $95 million left on his contract. Some have speculated that the 76ers may eventually have to break up the combination of Embiid and Ben Simmons to improve the balance of the team.

Embiid said several times after the loss that he "isn't the GM" but seemed to question some of the moves the team has made over the past two years.

"I just feel like, a couple years ago, when we made the playoffs for the first time, we had a bunch of great players that were drafted here or either formed in Philly and we had a bunch of guys especially that were in a great situation," Embiid said.

"And then we, as you know, we decided to trade a lot of it with the picks and stuff for Jimmy [Butler], Tobias [Harris], and we got a bunch of great players in return. Like I said, it just didn't happen. We could never find a rhythm this year. It is disappointing. There's a lot of regrets. I felt like the focus was not always there. And we got to do better; we just got to look at ourselves in the mirror and just do better."

The Golden State Warriors will pursue trade scenarios with the No. 2 overall pick, Bob Myers tells ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

The Warriors are attempting to maximize their title window and a trade of the pick would likely help more than a young player.
