A deal is expected to be finalized in the next few days, and Sixers GM Elton Brand is expected to remain in his current position, sources said.

Sixers fans will be over the moon if this happens.  I can't see Morey taking the job if he doesn't have true control.

I thought he was going to pursue non-basketball options?

I'd assume the money is just too good to pass up.

Good decision. Their front office has been dysfunctional since they fired Hinkie. Morey will right the ship.

Per Shams:
Sources: Former Rockets GM Daryl Morey will sign a five-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers as soon as this weekend to run the franchise’s basketball operations.

Yes it has.  When they hired Brand, they specifically wanted to keep the front office folks and their management structure.  I'd expect a house cleaning this time.  Brand will stay but the Colangelo folks should be updating their resumes.

not sure. But expect changes

 Morey is someone that can't sit still

never seen another GM make a big splash almost every season.   Its like he has an addiction to big changes

That would be nice but I doubt it.  Even if Embiid were to become available, I doubt they'd trade him to us.
