Former All-Star guard Jameer Nelson has been promoted to general manager of the Philadelphia 76ers' G League affiliate in Delaware, sources told ESPN on Friday.
Nelson -- who spent 14 seasons in the NBA with five teams -- has been progressing steadily through the Sixers organization since arriving three years ago. Before this elevation, Nelson had been the Delaware Blue Coats' assistant GM and a 76ers scout.
Nelson succeeds Prosper Karangwa as the G League team's GM. Karangwa has moved into a more prominent role with the Sixers' front office after winning a G League title last year, sources said.
