he Philadelphia 76ers are exploring all options before the deadline as they wait for Andrew Bynum's debut with the club.

The 76ers have reportedly made calls around the NBA to gauge the trade value of Evan Turner.
Steadily gotten better each season in the league. I think a change of scenery could do him a bit of good.

Wouldn't mind seeing The Wolves make a move depending on exactly what they want in return. Turner was a player I really liked and was really hoping that he would somehow fall to #4 but it didn't happen oh well.

Turner is an interesting case. I mean what is he worth? I mean his pros and cons couldn't be farther apart. Offensively he only averages 0.83 points per play which leaves a ton to be desired, but he has a good assist rate and is actually one of the better iso players in the league. Defensivenly, once again he's a great iso defender but he doesn't guard the p&r all that well and doesn't really get out to shooters. So how do you put a value on that?

I don't know how well he could guard opposing PGs, but I think it'd be intriguing for a rebuilding team to try and make him their starting PG. Obviously not tradition, but could be a huge match up nightmare, and definitely has the passing ability to run point.
