Philadelphia 76ers swingman Furkan Korkmaz has requested to be traded before Thursday's deadline, according to Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Pompey further reports that Korkmaz was informed the Sixers will try to package him in a deal. This isn't the first time that Korkmaz requested to be traded because of a lack of playing time.
NBA All-Star starters and captains are out, with LeBron James headlining the West and Giannis Antetokounmpo leading the East. Results stayed quite predictable with Nikola Jokic, Zion Williamson, Stephen Curry, and Luka Doncic filling out the West. Kevin Durant, Jayson Tatum, Donovan Micthell, and Kyrie Irving are the four other selections from the East.
Furkan Korkmaz, whose playing time with the Philadelphia 76ers has decreased this season, may continue his career in another team. For the Turkish guard, who has been playing for the 76ers since he stepped into the NBA in 2017, the Philadelphia 76ers adventure seems closer to the end than ever before. Reports mention that the club is considering trading him before the trade window closes.

Smith. RJ Barrett's winner after a comeback from 25 points overshadowed his career night story, but Fournier became the third Frenchman in history to score more than 40 points in an NBA game after ...
