The Philadelphia 76ers uncovered two hidden gems in Dominick Barlow and Jabari Walker, whom they signed to two-way contracts last summer. In order to keep them, however, Philadelphia must reshuffle its roster before time runs out.
Keith Smith of Spotrac noted on Friday morning that the 76ers have only 12 games remaining where both Barlow and Walker can play. This is due to the NBA’s rule allowing teams that roster fewer than 15 players, like Philadelphia, 90 games of two-way player eligibility. The 76ers–employing 14 players–can convert just one of Barlow or Walker to a standard NBA contract, meaning they must open another roster spot if they desire to keep both players in the long term.
