PHILADELPHIA (AP) — When Evan Turner and Thaddeus Young saw the Philadelphia 76ers trade away Jrue Holiday, they wondered if they would be next.

It didn’t happen. Turner and Young are still here, though maybe not for long.

There’s no hiding that the Sixers are in full rebuilding mode. They have a new general manager, a new coach and a new philosophy.

Training camp starts Saturday, and players are aware expectations are low.

Turner, Young and Spencer Hawes are now the cornerstones for a team that’s expected to lose quite a few games this season.
