Jabari Walker News / Liberty Ballers / June 5
Will Jabari Walker be more than a brief two-way contract success story? 
By any objective measure, Jabari Walker’s first season with the Philadelphia 76ers was a success. Signed last July to a two-way contract after spending three seasons with Portland, Walker ended up playing an important role for a Sixers team that often found itself thin in the frontcourt.

Dalen Terry News / Liberty Ballers / June 2
Were Dalen Terry’s defensive flashes enough to earn him a spot?
The Sixers sure did corner the market on mid-first-rounders from the 2022 draft. While the team’s biggest addition of the 2026 trade deadline may have been converting Dominick Barlow from a two-way to a standard NBA contract, it at least gave them more flyers to take for the rest of the season.

Why the Mid-Level Exception Will Dictate the Sixers' Interest in Bringing Back Oubre, Grimes
The Sixers were in training camp by the time one of the staples of their roster for the 2025-26 season was settled. That's unusual and suboptimal. It was also part of doing business.
