Sixers land Wade on four-year deal as free agency opens
The Philadelphia 76ers kicked off free agency with a four-year, $39 million deal for forward Dean Wade (Mike Gansey’s first signing as president of basketball operations), and added Ariel Hukporti on a one-year, $3.4 million contract. Kelly Oubre Jr., Quentin Grimes and Andre Drummond are now unrestricted free agents, while the team exercised options on Dominick Barlow and Dalen Terry and declined Trendon Watford’s. The Sixers face cap questions and potential targets via the mid-level exception, with rumors linking Grimes to the Lakers and discussions of players like John Collins.
