First reported by Paul Hudrick of 97.3 ESPN (and later confirmed by multiple other sources), the Sixers and Justin Anderson have agreed on a two-year contract. The deal is partially guaranteed for 2021 and non-guaranteed in 2022, meaning Anderson is likely coming in to compete for a spot during camp (similar to that of Derrick Walton Jr. and Ryan Broekhoff).
One of Joel Embiid‘s favorite teammates during the latter stages of the “Process”, bringing back Anderson on a low-risk deal is a clear indicator of newly hired President Daryl Morey valuing his players’ mental well-being.
