Daily News | Montrezl Harrell returning to the Sixers on a one-year deal
in his original two-year deal signed with the Sixers last fall. The Sixers on Wednesday also agreed to a one-year, minimum-salary deal with Mo Bamba, presumably to be Joel Embiid’s backup at center. Paul Reed, who played behind Embiid during the second half of last season, is a restricted free agent.Harrell spent last season with the Sixers, initially as the backup center before eventually falling out of the rotation. He averaged 5.6 points and 2.8 rebounds in 11.
Since winning the 2019-20 NBA Sixth Man of the Year with the Los Angeles Clippers, Harrell has been a journeyman. He played for the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020-21, before splitting the 2021-22 season between the Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets. He was a late addition to the Sixers’ 2022 free-agency class, after a felony marijuana trafficking charge was reduced to a possession misdemeanor.
Though Harrell had instant pick-and-roll familiarity with James Harden, with whom he played in Houston, defensive blunders eventually paved the way for Reed to behind Embiid. Harrell played in only eight games after Feb. 8, and logged seven total minutes in two playoff appearances.
