List of Sixers’ Key Signings Discussed

Paul George
Arguably, it’s the top signing of the offseason for any team. George and the LA Clippers mutually decided to part ways. Although he nearly landed in a sign-and-trade scenario to the Golden State Warriors, talks fell through, resulting in the nine-time All-Star testing the market and quickly getting sold on the Sixers.
Caleb Martin
The Miami Heat’s higher offer wasn’t enough for Caleb Martin to return for a fourth season and beyond. With a need for playoff-tested veterans, the Sixers made an offer to Martin and won his services.
Andre Drummond
Philly loves a good reunion. Despite adding Drummond to the Ben Simmons-James Harden blockbuster a few seasons ago, Drummond doesn’t have any hard feelings toward the front office. The veteran center is back and ready to finish what he started before.
Eric Gordon
The Sixers didn’t load up on former Houston Rockets this summer, but Eric Gordon has ties to Morey’s former organization. Searching for some solid vets, Gordon brings tons of experience to the table.
Kelly Oubre
It’s confirmed that Kelly Oubre felt enough love from the Sixers. After taking a one-year deal in Philly last year, Oubre returns for at least another season.
Kyle Lowry
Back in his hometown for another season, Kyle Lowry continues working with Nick Nurse. Now, he hopes to find that same success the two found in Toronto.
KJ Martin
Perhaps the Sixers’ most interesting signing this offseason, as it opens a ton of questions moving forward. Will Martin get moved later on? Only time will tell.
Reggie Jackson
The latest addition to the Sixers’ roster brings recent championship experience from his stint with the Denver Nuggets. Of course, he’s familiar with some of the team’s key additions as well.
