In NBA, the relationship between players, management and fans has often been a complex and delicate dance. The Philadelphia 76ers, one of the NBA’s most storied franchises, is no stranger to this intricate ballet. A recent incident involves James Harden?s teammate?s comment that led to an unexpected offer from a cookie company and Daryl Morey’s visit to the store.

The incident, which started as light-hearted jest, has now snowballed into a full-blown social media storm, with fans expressing their frustration and disappointment with the president of Philly.?

The Cookie comment and Daryl Morey?s visit to the store

The saga began when Tobias Harris, in a recent interview, claimed that casual Sixers fans would trade him for a Crumbl Cookie. The comment, made in jest, was a response to the ongoing trade speculations surrounding him.

However, it caught the attention of Crumbl Cookies, who responded with a viral tweet offering a free cookie to everyone in Philadelphia if Harris stays with the Sixers.
