The Philadelphia 76ers have signed Pete Nance to a two-way contract to bolster their center position, parting ways with Lester Quiñones to make room. Nance, a rookie out of North Carolina, provides much-needed size at 6-foot-11, especially with Joel Embiid and Andre Drummond sidelined due to injuries.

Meanwhile, Tyrese Maxey has found his shooting rhythm, making 50% of his three-pointers in recent games. The Sixers are also expecting the return of three players, including Caleb Martin and Kyle Lowry, for their upcoming match against the Charlotte Hornets.
