NBA Rumor Central: Shawn Long will get more time with Sixers

UPDATE: According to Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer, the Sixers are going to sign Shawn Long to a rest-of-season contract that runs through the 2018-19 season.

---------------------------------------

The Philadelphia 76ers signed forward Shawn Long to a 10-day contract March 6, and the deal expires Wednesday night. The Sixers can offer another 10-day contract or let him go Thursday. When asked about Long's status, head coach Brett Brown implied that the team will probably extend the forward's time with the Sixers.

"It wouldn't surprise me," Brown told The Philadelphia Inquirer.
