Trading Caleb Martin for Quentin Grimes and potentially salary-dumping KJ Martin seems to send a clear signal about the Sixers' priorities at the trade deadline.

Martin came to the Sixers with huge expectations but was plagued by injuries. He missed the last 12 games. KJ Martin, another Sixers forward, was sidelined Tuesday because of a pending trade.

Although he’s been in the league for almost six years, Caleb Martin made himself a well-known figure to NBA fans during the 2023 playoffs. He was pivotal in helping the Miami Heat reach the NBA Finals as the East’s eighth seed, taking down Boston in a seven-game Eastern Conference Finals battle.
