Gerald Henderson Waived By Philly

It’s free agent season and that means different things for different people.

For former Blue Devil Gerald Henderson, it means getting waived by his hometown Sixers.

Henderson had an $18 million dollar deal and Philly is in the middle of a major rebuild. With Ben Simmons and Markelle Fultz on the roster, Henderson is expendable - and waiving him helps the salary cap as well.

At 29 and a true professional, Henderson’s career is not over, but it will continue somewhere else where he’ll most likely prove a valuable veteran.
