Montrezl Harrell might raise the Sixers’ floor but lower their ceiling

Backup center was looming as one of the Sixers’ biggest question marks heading into the 2022-23 NBA season, but that’s no longer the case after they signed Montrezl Harrell to a two-year, $5.2 million contract on Tuesday, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. A team source confirmed the signing to Liberty Ballers.

It’s easy to see the upside of adding Harrell on a minimum deal. He was one of the top remaining players on the free-agent market, and he had his best years of his career under head coach Doc Rivers with the Los Angeles Clippers.
