The Philadelphia 76ers received some good news Wednesday in the midst of a terrible 1-19 start to the 2015-16 NBA season. According to scout Vedran Modric, who spoke with the father of 2014 first-round pick Dario Saric, the Croatian forward will play for the team next season.
Saric, who was drafted 12th overall by the Orlando Magic and quickly traded to the Sixers, is playing for Anadolu Efes of the Turkish Basketball Super League, where he is under a three-year contract.
But according to CBS Sports' Matt Moore, his contract will give him an opportunity to opt out and join Philadelphia next season.
