The Philadelphia 76ers will sign Anthony Tolliver to a contract for the remainder of the season.

Tolliver will be coming off two consecutive 10-day contracts. 

Tolliver has appeared in five games with the 76ers, averaging 12.4 minutes. 

The Philadelphia 76ers still plan to pursue Kyle Lowry in free agency via a possible sign-and-trade.

The Toronto Raptors and 76ers held trade talks on Lowry at the deadline but no deal was consummated.

The Miami Heat and Los Angeles Lakers also tried to trade for Lowry at the deadline. The Heat are the only team of the three in position to possibly sign Lowry outright.

“Really good,” one general manager told The Athletic when asked about Lowry’s market. “There’s teams with money and not a lot of players, so I think he’s going to do really well.”

The Philadelphia 76ers have signed Anthony Tolliver to a second 10-day contract.

Tolliver has appeared in one game so far this season with the 76ers.

Tolliver is a career 37.3 percent three-point shooter. 

Ben Simmons reinforced the importance of the Philadelphia 76ers getting the top seed in the Eastern Conference following a 123-117 win over the Brooklyn Nets.

The Sixers are now a game ahead of the Nets in the standings, and have also clinched the season series.

"[It's] very important. We want that one seed," said Simmons after the game.

Doc Rivers echoed Simmons' thoughts. 

"We really haven't talked about it a lot. We're just talking about winning games. It clearly would be nice to have," said Rivers.

Since the 2017-18 season, the Sixers are 111-28 when playing at the Wells Fargo Center. They are currently 23-5 at home this season.

"I think we're comfortable at home. I guess it's surprising this year without the fans. I can understand with the fans, but without the fans we've had a lot of success, as well," added Rivers. 

The Philadelphia 76ers have signed Anthony Tolliver to a 10-day contract, sources told Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

Tolliver last played for the Grizzlies in the 2019-20 season. 

The Philadelphia 76ers have waived Ignas Brazdeikis.

Brazdeikis was traded by the New York Knicks to the 76ers at the trade deadline.

Brazdeikis was the 47th overall pick in the 2019 NBA draft.

The NBA will have four teams with three players making in excess of $100 million in combined salary during the 21-22 season in the Milwaukee Bucks, Golden State Warriors, Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets.

The Bucks have their trio of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday.

Golden State's trio is Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins.

Philadelphia has Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris.

The Nets have James Harden, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. 

Joel Embiid is expected to return to the Philadelphia 76ers lineup this Saturday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Embiid has missed the team's last nine games due to a bone bruise in his knee.

The Sixers have gone 6-3 without Embiid.
