Guess the Spurs wanted to at least look like they're competing this year. Oh well. Sort of the same situation as the Phils. Make a run at him next year for nothing but money. And other options will open up between now and then I'm sure. That '21 Miami pick is huge.
Pissed about Bjelica though....www.myspace.com0 -
^^^^How about this shit with Bjelica???^^^^(if this report is true, but Shams Charania is good)Report: Kings, Bjelica plan to discuss potential deal12m agoAbbie Parr / Getty Images Sport / Getty
After initial reports indicated that Nemanja Bjelica had pulled out of a verbal agreement with the Philadelphia 76ers on a one-year, $4.4-million deal in order to court a more lucrative contract overseas, it appears the free-agent forward's idea of a foreign locale is the capital of California.
Bjelica is now prepared to begin working out a contract with the Sacramento Kings, sources told Yahoo Sports' Shams Charania.
The 30-year-old Serbian averaged 6.8 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 1.3 assists in 67 appearances with the Minnesota Timberwolves last season.

Report: 76ers sign 2017 draft pick Jonah Bolden to 4-year, $7M contract3h agoEthan Miller / Getty Images Sport / Getty
The Philadelphia 76ers signed 2017 second-round pick Jonah Bolden to a four-year contract worth $7 million, sources told Yahoo Sports' Shams Charania. The contract reportedly includes team options.
A 6-foot-10 forward, Bolden was selected No. 36 overall in last year's draft, but he opted to remain overseas for the 2017-18 season. In 29 EuroLeague appearances with Israel's Maccabi Tel Aviv, the 22-year-old Australian averaged 6.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.6 assists, and 1.2 steals per game.
Bolden also averaged 6.5 points and six rebounds in six appearances while playing for the Sixers' summer league squad earlier this month.

BIG TRADE!!
The Philadelphia 76ers are trading center Richaun Holmes to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for cash considerations, league sources told Yahoo Sports' Shams Charania.
The Bowling Green product has been a steady reserve in the Sixers' frontcourt rotation. Pressed into greater minutes while teammate Joel Embiid missed significant time in 2016-17, Holmes averaged career highs in points (9.8), rebounds (5.5), and blocks (one) per game in 21 minutes a night.
Holmes is in the final year of his current contract. The 24-year-old is set to make $1.6 million this coming season before hitting unrestricted free agency.

Oh yeah, he's a TRUE Sixer now.Report: 76ers 1st-rounder Zhaire Smith suffers fractured left foot5h agoMike Lawrie / Getty Images Sport / Getty
The Philadelphia 76ers have another rookie on the sidelines.
Zhaire Smith suffered a fractured left foot while attending trainer Tim Grgurich's development camp in Las Vegas, league sources told Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports.
Smith will have surgery on the foot later this week, Charania added.
The Sixers announced the injury earlier Tuesday before the diagnosis was known.
Smith is the second 76ers rookie in three seasons to suffer a foot fracture, as Ben Simmons broke his right foot in practice ahead of the 2016-17 season.
The jack-of-all-trades wing played well during summer league, averaging 7.6 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 2.6 assists over six games.
Smith, 19, rose into the first round of the draft after a breakout freshman season at Texas Tech in which he averaged 11.2 points, five rebounds, and more than a block and a steal per game in the Red Raiders' run to the Elite Eight.

Report: 76ers hire Elton Brand as GM1h agoGary Dineen / National Basketball Association / Getty
The Philadelphia 76ers have reportedly ended their search for a general manager by hiring former NBA All-Star Elton Brand, league sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Brand is expected to be officially introduced by the team on Thursday, Wojnarowski added.
The 39-year-old has quickly transitioned from former player to the Sixers' front office, beginning as a player-development consultant following his retirement in October 2016.
Brand was named the general manager of the team's G League affiliate Delaware Blue Coats in August 2017 and the 76ers hired him as their vice president of basketball operations a year later on Aug. 27, 2018.
In 17 years in the NBA as a player for the Chicago Bulls, Los Angeles Clippers, 76ers, Dallas Mavericks, and Atlanta Hawks, Brand averaged 15.9 points and 8.5 rebounds on 50 percent shooting.
The first overall pick in the 1999 draft, he was named Rookie of the Year in the 1999-00 season and was an All-Star in 2001-02 and 2005-06.

I was surprised to see this too. Has Brand really been that good in the front office to land this job? If so, good for him.Jearlpam0925 said:
