The 76ers have been scouring the trade market for a forward who could potentially start for them, league sources say, and Finney-Smith would fit that criteria. As noted above, Philadelphia has also expressed interest in a pair of Miami Heat small forwards on the free agent market, Caleb Martin and Haywood Highsmith, league sources told HoopsHype, and as reported by the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Cavaliers have admired Finney-Smith and have kept tabs on him since the Nets acquired him, league sources said.
Amid Cleveland’s interest in Finney-Smith, it’s worth noting that Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro is a potential sign-and-trade candidate to monitor in restricted free agency, league sources told HoopsHype, and as ESPN’s Bobby Marks recently noted.

I can get behind okoro for dfs. 3/45 for okoro seems about right
Ricky Council and a FRP please and thank you
Id feel bad for sending DFS to Celevalnd, I hoped he would end up in Philly for that LAC Pick
Okoro should be cheap enough for Cleveland to extend him, he’s young and likely still improving but been a disappointment given they over-drafted him. I don’t think the Nets would be interested in a player like that who can contribute now unless we plan to flip him at the trade deadline for another pick?
If Philly are offering a first round pick straight up for DFS make the deal now.
