Report: 76ers Agree to Extension With GM Elton Brand

The Philadelphia 76ers are reportedly finalizing a multi-year contract extension with general manager Elton Brand, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania.

Brand, who was hired in September 2018, will take part in the franchise's future despite the recent addition of Daryl Morey as the 76ers' president of basketball operations.

Morey will officially be introduced as the team's president Monday. On Oct. 15, Morey announced he was stepped down as the Rockets' general manager, a role he held for 13 years.

ESPN reported on Wednesday that despite Morey's hiring, Brand was expected to remain with the team.
