76ers' 3-Player Trade Idea Lands $36 Million Forward
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Philadelphia 76ers were the biggest disappointment of the 2024-25 NBA season. The 76ers entered the season with sky-high expectations, but failed to even reach the playoffs in a lost season for a core that isn't getting any younger. More news: Russell Westbrook Gets Unfortunate Update Regarding Future in NBA as Free Agency Rolls On Joel Embiid, the league's Most Valuable Player just a few seasons ago, appeared in a career-low 19 games, ending a streak of seven consecutive All-Star appearances. Paul George, the team's major offseason acquisition, played in 41 games, averaging his fewest points per game (16.2) in a season in over a decade. While the 76ers had a lost season, finishing 24-58 and as the No. 13 seed in the Eastern Conference, Philadelphia is a candidate to have a major bounce back year. Before the new season rolls around, though, Philadelphia was urged to make a trade to finalize its roster. Grant Hughes of Bleacher Report proposed a three-player trade in which the 76ers would add a durable forward from the Sacramento Kings. More news: Pistons Would Land $285 Million Superstar in Blockbuster Trade Idea With Celtics "Trade idea: Philadelphia 76ers acquire Keegan Murray from the Sacramento Kings for Jared McCain and Kelly Oubre Jr." PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA - JANUARY 29: Keegan Murray #13 of the Sacramento Kings and Kelly Oubre Jr. #9 of the Philadelphia 76ers reach for the ball during the second half at the Wells Fargo Center on... PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA - JANUARY 29: Keegan Murray #13 of the Sacramento Kings and Kelly Oubre Jr. #9 of the Philadelphia 76ers reach for the ball during the second half at the Wells Fargo Center on January 29, 2025 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. More"McCain played 23 games last year with minimal stakes, so let's be sure not to overstate how much he's proved as a pro to this point in his career. His profile might be on equal footing with Murray's, but should it be?" Hughes wrote. "Murray set the rookie record with 206 made triples, has been a durable three-year starter and would give the Sixers some badly needed 3-and-D support alongside (or as a replacement for an injured) Paul George." The 76ers drafted McCain in the first round of last year's draft, and he impressed in limited action, averaging 15.3 points per game on 46 percent shooting from the field and 38.3 percent from deep. However, he appeared in just 23 games before suffering a torn meniscus. More news: Lakers' Luka Doncic, Nuggets' Nikola Jokic Send Internet Into Frenzy Following Viral Moment Oubre, on the other hand, averaged 15.1 points per game last season across 60 contests, and would be able to fill Murray's role for Sacramento. For Philadelphia, they're betting on Murray continuing to stay healthy, providing valuable minutes as a 3-and-D forward. While it could be fair to wonder if McCain has more potential than Murray on his own, Hughes seems to believe Murray is a safer bet, which could make sense for a team in a win-now window with George and Embiid.

Chicago Bulls will retire Derrick Rose's No. 1 jersey in a Jan. 24 ceremony at the United Center
The Chicago Bulls set a date to loft the jersey of hometown star Derrick Rose into the United Center rafters. The team announced Thursday that Rose's No. 1 jersey will be retired Jan. 24 in a ceremony after a home game against the Boston Celtics. A Chicago native who won two state titles with Simeon, Rose reignited hope in his hometown team when the Bulls selected him with the No. 1 pick in the 2008 draft. He won Rookie of the Year, then became the youngest MVP in NBA history in 2011 while leading the Bulls to the Eastern Conference finals. Although his career trajectory was irrevocably shifted by a knee injury in the first round of the 2012 playoffs, Rose went on to have a 15-year NBA career following stints with the New York Knicks, Detroit Pistons, Minnesota Timberwolves, Cleveland Cavaliers and Memphis Grizzlies. Rose retired as a three-time All-Star. The Bulls have retired only four player numbers: Jerry Sloan, Bob Love, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. The Bulls also retired honorary numbers for executive Jerry Krause and coach Phil Jackson. The Bulls honored Rose after his retirement last season in a halftime celebration during a January game against the Knicks. Former teammates including Joakim Noah, Luol Deng and Taj Gibson attended the ceremony. The morning before, Bulls Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf informed Rose of the team's plan to retire his jersey. The teams will offer a presale for season ticket holders on full, 20-game and 10-game plans. The sale date for individual tickets has not been announced. The Bulls also are running a season-long promotion with giveaways of Rose figurines at four games: Nov. 4 against the Philadelphia 76ers, Dec. 17 against the Cavaliers, Feb. 22 against the Knicks and March 19 against the Cavaliers.

6-foot-9, 24-year NHL veteran completes sub-five-hour ironman
6-foot-9, 24-year NHL veteran completes sub-five-hour ironman originally appeared on The Sporting News An Ironman triathlon might just be one of the most impressive feats a human can say they've done. Many do it to prove to themselves they're capable of doing what's viewed as impossible to some. One former NHL player's hobby recently seems to be completing Ironmans. What former NHL player ran a sub-five-hour Ironman? An Ironman is basically a triathlon (Swimming, biking and running) but with extreme volume that forces humans to endure pain like they've never felt before. The distances can vary. Former NHL player Zdeno Chara just completed a sub-five-hour Ironman that consisted of 1.2 miles of swimming, 56 miles of biking and 13.1 miles of running. He finished with a time of 4:56:47. For a player who played 24 long seasons in the NHL, consisting of 1,680 games, you'd think he'd want to enjoy retirement once he called it a career. Chara has done the opposite. Chara stated in the past, 'My athletic journey post-hockey naturally gravitated toward endurance sports' (Runner's World). At age 48, Chara is getting every bit out of his body that he has left, and is doing it with a smile on his face, even after logging 39,485 minutes on the ice in his career. He stands at an increible height of 6-9 for an NHL player, tied with Rangers' Matt Rempe for the tallest player to ever play in the NHL. Chara was a seven-time all-star, a Stanley Cup Champion and most importantly, a Hall of Famer. He recorded 680 points in his career, with 209 goals and 471 assists. No signs are pointing towards Chara ending his post-NHL racing hobby just yet, so we should expect to see more impressive endurance feats from Chara in the next couple of years.
