The Philadelphia 76ers will retain their first-round pick swap with the Los Angeles Clippers in 2029, as confirmed by Chris Hine of The Philadelphia Inquirer. This decision follows the NBA’s sanctions against the Clippers for violating salary cap rules, which includes forfeiting five first-round picks from 2029 to 2033. Instead of losing their own pick, the NBA will take away the Pacers’ 2029 pick from the Ivica Zubac trade. The pick swap, received by the Sixers in the James Harden deal, is top-three protected.
