PHILADELPHIA (AP) The Philadelphia 76ers have acquired veteran forward Andrei Kirilenko, a second-round pick in the 2020 draft, guard Jorge Gutierrez and cash considerations from the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for forward Brandon Davies.

The Sixers also receive the right to swap Cleveland's second round pick in 2018 (which Philadelphia acquired during the offseason) with Brooklyn's own second round pick that year.

Kirilenko is in 13th NBA season and was originally the 24th overall pick by Utah in the 1999 NBA Draft, spending his first 10 seasons with the Jazz. Kirilenko is averaging 12 points, six rebounds and three assists per game over his career.

Gutierrez was eligible for the 2012 NBA Draft following his senior season at California. He was named the 2012 Pac-12 Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year.

In a related move, the Sixers waived Malcom Lee.
