The Philadelphia 76ers have been, by far, the most disappointing team in the NBA this season. Acquiring Paul George in the offseason to pair with Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid was expected to be a massive move, but the 76ers are just 19-27 through 46 games.

Philadelphia hosts Denver aiming to continue its four-game win streak. Friday's meeting is the first this season for the two teams.

Multiple teams have expressed trade interest in Philadelphia 76ers players including Caleb Martin, Andre Drummond and Guerschon Yabusele, according

He won't be playing Tuesday due to a knee injury. The Sixers are 8-20 without Embiid this season and have a 15-26 overall record.

Two of the Sixers' rivals in the Eastern Conference -- the Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks -- are among "several" teams interested in trading for Guerschon Yabusele, according to a Thursday evening report from Michael Scotto of HoopsHype.
