The second 2021 NBA free agency started, a flurry of deals were confirmed in a flash. And after a little over an hour, we had confirmation of the Philadelphia 76ers’ first move.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski has reported that the Sixers are re-signing Furkan Korkmaz on a three-year, $15 million contract.

Korkmaz obviously has his limitations, from his lateral quickness on defense and his ability to attack off the dribble on offense, but he’s made improvements through his career and has proven the value he has as a shooter.
