Overview
- Philadelphia remains without a timeline for resolving Quentin Grimes’ restricted free agency stalemate despite multiple discussions with his representation.
- Guerschon Yabusele signed a two-year, $12 million deal with the New York Knicks after Philadelphia’s above-minimum offer failed to match.
- The Sixers bolstered frontcourt depth by drafting Johni Broome, signing Trendon Watford and adding Jabari Walker and Dominick Barlow on two-way contracts.
- Kyle Lowry and Eric Gordon returned on veteran minimum deals to focus on mentorship and leadership roles rather than primary rotation minutes.
- Optimistic health projections for Joel Embiid and Paul George underpin the franchise’s hopes of turning minimal roster tweaks into a competitive squad.
