PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Philadelphia 76ers head coach Brett Brown tells Action News he does not expect to start the season with all of their big men.

The team is still exploring trades for Jahlil Okafor and Nerlens Noel.

Brown told Action News sports reporter Jamie Apody Wednesday he assumes it's hard on Okafor and Noel because they don't know where their next home will be.

While Brown says they can't fix everything right this second, he says it's just not possible for the 76ers to play with all these big men.

"We've talked a lot about it freely. I talk with my players freely about the logjam that we have with all of our bigs," Brown said. "Somebody asked me on record the other day, 'do I expect at a trade to be made?' I would be surprised if there wasn't one. I talked to my own players about that same thing. It's pro sport. It's real."
