J.J. Redick’s contract wasn’t an overpay

The vast majority of onlookers considered the Philadelphia 76ers‘ offseason a success. Not only did they move up to the top spot in the draft, but they added a pair of veteran talents in J.J. Redick and Amir Johnson — both of whom will help the team in different capacities.

Some, however, have taken a different route in their critique of the Sixers’ moves this summer — namely, with their decision to pay J.J. Redick $23 million. ESPN’s Jeremias Engelmann dove into the best and worst contracts handed out this offseason, where he ventured to say that Redick’s was among the worst.
