The Philadelphia 76ers are finalizing a trade that will send forward Ersan Ilyasova and a second-round pick to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for center Tiago Splitter and two second-round picks, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.
Ilyasova should provide the Hawks some valuable depth up front and can help stretch the floor ala starter Paul Millsap. His fantasy value will likely take a hit however, in what projects to be a reduced role in Atlanta. Splitter isn't relevant, but Dario Saric becomes a must-own player in Philadelphia now with the increased opportunity.
Ilyasova is averaging 14.3 points, 5.9 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2.0 3-pointers in 27.3 minutes per game this season. His -0.9 nERD ranks just outside the NBA's top-100 players while his 23.3 percent usage rate is a career-high.
