Despite acquiring All-Star guard James Harden ahead of the trade deadline, the Philadelphia 76ers' 2021-22 campaign ended with another second-round playoff exit.

With a lineup needing reinforcements, the 76ers have turned to free agency to plug some holes.

According to multiple sources, Philadelphia has agreed to terms with free-agent forwards P.J. Tucker and Danuel House Jr.

Tucker, 37, was widely rumored to be head to Philly once free agency opened.

The 11-year veteran reportedly signed a three-year, $33.2 million contract with the 76ers.
