Caldwell-Pope Signs One-Year Deal with 76ers as LeBron-Linked Philly Moves Forward

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope is set to sign a one-year, $3.9 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers after a buyout from the Memphis Grizzlies, with a prorated cap hit around $2.4 million that keeps Philly under the first-apron hard cap. The move comes as LeBron James signs a two-year, $8 million contract to join Philly, adding veteran defense and shooting to a roster around Embiid and Maxey; Caldwell-Pope posted 8.4 points, 2.7 assists and 2.5 rebounds last season with 41% FG and 31.6% 3P, with potential to bounce back with new surroundings.

Sixers Target Veteran 3-and-D Wing Caldwell-Pope After Grizzlies Buyout

The Sixers, after rumors of LeBron James joining, are set to sign Kentavious Caldwell-Pope pending a buyout from the Memphis Grizzlies. Caldwell-Pope would add veteran 3-and-D depth to Philadelphia, who is trying to bolster their wing rotation. His recent stint in Memphis was below his career averages, but he brings championship pedigree from the Lakers/Nuggets. To sign him, Philly would need to clear cap space by waiving non-guaranteed contracts (Jabari Walker, Dalen Terry) and possibly Johni Broome, keeping options open on roster spots as they pursue veteran minimum signings.
