As part of the James Harden trade, the Philadelphia 76ers will receive the lesser of three first round picks held but the Oklahoma City Thunder in the 2026 draft, sources tell Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports.

The Thunder hold their own pick, as well as the Houston Rockets' top-4 protected pick and one from the Los Angeles Clippers that will become protected. For the Thunder, they are trading a 2026 first round pick in hopes that a pick swap with the Clippers in 2027 creates a greater return.

The Sixers are widely expected to make that pick available between now and the deadline in hopes of upgrading their roster this season.
