Dario Saric Reportedly Wanted to Come to the Sixers in 2015

The Homie Dario won't be a Sixer this season, but there's increasing hope that he joins the team next summer.

While he might not be launching threes in summer league with his fellow Eastern European pal Furkan Aldemir, Dario Saric reportedly would like to have been with the 76ers this summer, as news broke this morning that Saric wanted to come to the NBA and the Sixers this offseason, per Basketball Insiders' David Pick.

The reasoning such a move in 2015 was unlikely and ultimately unsuccessful, as I outlined previously, is that Saric is still under contract with his Turkish club, Anadolu Efes, until the 2016-17 season with the potential for a buyout in the summer of 2016.
