The Philadelphia 76ers are reportedly interested in signing veteran swingman Avery Bradley if he becomes available.
According to Michael K-B of 247 Sports, the Sixers are currently monitoring Bradley's situation in Memphis. There is a chance that the Grizzlies will waive Bradley. And if he becomes available, Philly is expected to aggressively pursue the 28-year-old guard.
Bradley played just 14 games for the Grizzlies last season after he was traded from the Los Angeles Clippers midway through the campaign. The nine-year veteran impressed during his brief stint with Memphis, posting 16.1 points, 4.0 assists and 3.1 rebounds per game while shooting 46.3 percent from the field.
The Sixers might eventually need more veteran help next season depending on how the 2019 free agency shapes up. They are currently in a tricky situation because three of their starters will hit the free-agency market — Jimmy Butler, Tobias Harris and JJ Redick.
Butler is strongly being linked with the Houston Rockets, who can only acquire him in a sign-and-trade with the Sixers. Harris, on the other hand, will have no shortage of suitors this summer, and there is a chance that he will move elsewhere instead of settling for a fourth-option role in Philadelphia.
