Joel Embiid — along with others in the locker room — were not happy with the 76ers decision to trade Jared McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder, per @Tjonesonthenba

Joel Embiid reportedly hasn’t been seeing eye to eye with the Sixers front office and even had an issue with the Jared McCain trade, per @Tjonesonthenba
“As the season progressed, it became clear the star center didn’t see eye-to-eye with the front office and the coaching staff. In the days before the February trade deadline, he implored the front office to do something other than what he termed ‘ducking the (luxury) tax.’ As such, he — along with others in the locker room — were not happy with the decision to trade second-year guard Jared McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder, particularly without bringing in a player to replace McCain. In interviews over the next few games, Embiid noticeably had to hold himself back from verbally criticizing the front office.”
