On Feb. 22, 2017, the Sixers traded Ersan Ilysaova to the Hawks for second-round draft picks and Tiago Splitter.
Almost a year to the day, would the Sixers consider bringing Ilyasova back into the mix?
The trade deadline was on Feb. 8, but reportedly the Hawks are in the process of buying Ilyasova out of his contract, which will expire after this season. Ilyasova was earning $6 million this season.
Per Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Ilyasova invoked his right to reject a trade before the deadline.
Ilyasova's contract expires at the end of the season and he is eligible to become a free agent in the summer.
