The Philadelphia 76ers waived Hollis Thompson to ensure his contract wouldn’t be locked in and become guaranteed for the entire year on Wednesday before the team left for a road trip. While the Sixers seemed to be preparing for the opening day of 10-day contracts from the NBA D-League (which was actually beginning the very next day) the team actually may be poised to bring in another point guard from elsewhere in the league.
As noted by ESPN, both Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer and Jessica Camerato of Comcast Sports Network are concluding that the Sixers are likely to bring in another point guard with that extra roster spot.
