The Philadelphia 76ers made a few changes to their coaching staff on Tuesday afternoon, hiring Mike Longabardi and promoting Coby Karl.
The 76ers combined to go 3-5 in summer league action. However, there were a handful of players who put together positive performances.
Joel Embiid’s “or anywhere else” comment is a clear, not-so-subtle message to the Philadelphia 76ers’ front office.
Diving into lack of a trade market for James Harden, the chances of him returning to the 76ers and the risks of Daryl Morey’s wait-it-out strategy.
Terquavion Smith has been the Sixers’ best player in the summer leagues. Getting him as an undrafted player was a major steal for the Sixers.
To the relief of Sixers fans everywhere, the team matched Utah’s offer sheet to Paul Reed. The fan favorite center is staying in a Sixers uniform.
Paul Reed reportedly signed a 3-year, $23 million offer sheet with the Jazz. The Sixers have until 11:59 p.m. ET to decide if they will match it.
The Bamba and Harrell signings caused some to question Paul Reed’s future in Philadelphia. However, reports state he is still likely to re-sign with Sixers.
In a move nobody saw coming, the Sixers are re-signing backup big man Montrezl Harrell to a 1-year contract for the veteran minimum.
The 76ers are reportedly signing backup big man Mo Bamba. The move reportedly will have no affect on their interest in re-signing Paul Reed.
