Instant analysis: Sixers waive two players ahead of preseason opener

Basketball is finally back! It’s been a long road but tomorrow night will see the Sixers take on the Boston Celtics in a preseason showdown. There will be plenty to watch tomorrow night, but there will be two players no longer on the team’s radar.

Derrick Walton Jr.

An undrafted free agent in 2017, Derrick Walton Jr. signed his first contract with the Miami Heat. After making a little impact and spending time in the G-league, he took his talent overseas.

His return to the NBA was under new Sixers Head Coach Doc Rivers.
