Sixers sign PG Kendall Marshall to four-year deal
The Philadelphia 76ers signed point guard Kendall Marshall to a four-year deal, the team announced Wednesday.
The exact terms of Marshall’s contract have not yet been disclosed. However, Basketball Insiders’ Eric Pincus reported Wednesday that Marshall will make a fully guaranteed $2.1 million this season.
Marshall, 24, underwent surgery in February on his torn ACL, and missed the remainder of the 2014–15 season with the Milwaukee Bucks. He averaged 4.2 points and 3.1 assists in 14.9 minutes per game last season with the Bucks.
A first-round selection by the Phoenix Suns in the 2012 NBA draft, Marshall has played one season apiece for the Suns, Lakers and Bucks.
Marshall posted career-highs in 2013–14 with the Lakers, averaging 8.0 points, 8.8 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 29.0 minutes per game.
