The Philadelphia 76ers are making big moves after another early playoff exit, and it starts at the very top. Daryl Morey is out as President of Basketball Operations, according to Tony Jones and David Aldridge of The Athletic.

After six seasons with the team, Morey leaves behind a complicated legacy. He saw Joel Embiid win NBA MVP, helped bring in James Harden, and signed off on major moves like drafting VJ Edgecombe, trading Jared McCain, and bringing Paul George to Philly. He also played a key role in developing Tyrese Maxey into an All-Star talent.

But for all those headline-grabbing transactions, the results never matched the hype. The 76ers broke through with a playoff series win over the Boston Celtics and even rallied from a 3-1 deficit—but they never made it past the second round. Embiid remains the only NBA MVP in history who has never played in a conference final, and that stat now hangs over the franchise like a storm cloud.

With stars like Embiid, George, Maxey, and rookie VJ Edgecombe on the roster, the pressure was always going to be on Morey to deliver. After another early exit, the organization decided it was time for a change.

Bob Myers will lead the search for a new President of Basketball Operations and will oversee the team's operations during the offseason while the hunt is on.

For 76ers fans who have waited through "The Process" and all its ups and downs, the question now is simple: Is this finally the move that gets them over the hump?
