Tom Moore is reporting that the Sixers are on the verge of signing ex-Sixer wing man Rodney Carney to the veteran's minimum.
This isn't really a surprise. Carney's name was floated around as a possible addition to the wing for the Sixers. There are better players out there who are available but given the Sixers decision to avoid long-term deals and over extended themselves with additional salary.
Like the pick up? Dislike it? Don't care either way?
