The NBA trade deadline is mere days away, and teams are deciding what they will do to enhance their teams for the rest of the 2022-23 season.

The Philadelphia 76ers are one of those teams, specifically regarding the backup center spot. Now they also have a trade request on their hands.

Hours after admitting he wants to play more, Furkan Korkmaz officially requested a trade per Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer:

Sources have said the Turkish player has requested to be traded before Thursday’s 3 p.m. trade deadline.

Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey didn’t immediately respond to a text message asking if Korkmaz asked to be traded. But sources have said Korkmaz was informed the Sixers will try to package him in a deal.

Korkmaz has spent the entirety of his NBA career with the Sixers and averaged 7.5 points and 2.1 rebounds while shooting 35.4% from deep for his career.
