The Philadelphia 76ers waive two young players before free agency.

New president of basketball operations Darryl Morey and the Philadelphia 76ers made some strong moves on draft day, but to think those would be the only moves they’d make would a mistake. That being said, while the team did already agree to a free agent deal with future Hall of Fame center Dwight Howard, they made two transactions prior to the beginning of free agency.

Norvel Pelle was the first player waived by the Sixers, according to Keith Pompey of Philly.
