Often seen as the poster child of the Sixers rebuilding plan, JaKarr Sampson's tenure in Philadelphia is done, at least temporarily. According to Adrian Wojnarowski, Sampson is the casualty of Joel Anthony's arrival in Philadelphia.
The Philadelphia 76ers are waiving JaKarr Sampson, league sources tell @TheVertical. The Sixers needed to create spot for Joel Anthony.

The Sixers will presumably waive Anthony in the near future, but because the Sixers are at the roster limit, Anthony was not able to be acquired without a current member of the roster being cut.
