Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Chicagojk]

The Philadelphia 76ers have been looking for a trade for Johni Broome. If they can’t find one, the team may waive and stretch Broome’s salary. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope won't clear waivers until tomorrow. The Sixers have time to work out the move to clear room to sign KCP.  In a corresponding move, Philadelphia waived Dalen Terry to clear salary below the first apron hard cap to sign James. Philadelphia is $2,012,784 below the first apron. This does not include Kentavious Caldwell-Pope 1 year veteran exception= $2,449,421

The Broome Second round pick was the pick we sent in the Grimes/Martin trade.  Broome was fabulous in college, but so far looks like he can't play in the NBA.  Rare Morey miss on talent.    I haven't seen him play.   The concern was him is he is an old school big who battered smaller college players, but is limited athletically and not suited to play away from the basket in the NBA.  So far those concerns are legit.
